Use ^\\D+ to replace all non-digits from the beginning of each string.

public static void main(String[] args) {

    String[] str = { "S/. 05.56", "S/. 0.0", "S/. 0.00", "S/. 90.10", "S/.   01.23", "S/.   1.00", "S/.1.80",
            "$/.9.80", "$/.  10.80", "$/.    89.81", "$    89.81" };

    for (String s : str) {
        System.out.println(s.replaceAll("^\\D+", ""));
    }

}

O/P :

05.56
0.0
0.00
90.10
01.23
1.00
1.80
9.80
10.80
89.81
89.81
