As I know, It will work using your device telephony manager.

Here is the working code, You gave to get the county code.

fun Context.getDeviceCountryCode(): String {
    var countryCode: String?
    val tm = getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE) as TelephonyManager
    countryCode = tm.simCountryIso
    if (countryCode != null && countryCode.length == 2) return countryCode.lowercase()
    countryCode = if (tm.phoneType == TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_CDMA) {
        getCDMACountryIso()
    } else {
        tm.networkCountryIso
    }
    if (countryCode != null && countryCode.length == 2) return countryCode.lowercase()
    countryCode = if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
        resources.configuration.locales[0].country
    } else {
        resources.configuration.locale.country
    }
    return if (countryCode.length == 2) countryCode.lowercase() else "us"
}

After that call this method for getting the currency symbol

fun getCurrencySymbol(currencyCode: String?): String? {
    val currencySymbol: String?
    if (currencyCode == null || currencyCode.isEmpty()) {
        currencySymbol = currencyCode
    } else {
        val currencyLocale: Locale?
        val currencyLocaleMap: Map<Currency?, Locale>?
        val currency: Currency?
        try {
            currency = Currency.getInstance(currencyCode)
            currencyLocaleMap = getCurrencyLocaleMap()
            currencyLocale = currencyLocaleMap[currency]
        } catch (e: java.lang.Exception) {
            return "$"
        }
        currencySymbol = if (currency != null && currencyLocale != null) {
            currency.getSymbol(currencyLocaleMap[currency])
        } else {
            currencyCode
        }
    }
    return currencySymbol
}

Here are the calling methods, you can call that method and the method will be return the currency code, According to your device.

 countryCurrencySysmbol = getCurrencyIcon(getDeviceCountryCode())
