Looks like you have the answer to your specific question in Solution 1. In the future, if you are looking for a regex you should check out the RegEx Library[^]. They also have an online RegEx tester[^].

Solution 1

Try:

\d+(\.\d\d)?\$|\$\d+(\.\d\d)?

Get a copy of Expresso[^] - it's free, and it examines and generates Regular expressions.
