Is it true that in English the euro sign is written before the amount, while several European countries place it after?

Yes. A Wikipedia article on the euro sign states that in English the sign is usually placed before the figure, the reverse of usage in many other European languages, and that countries placing the amount before their former currency sign now place the euro sign after the amount. A Eurostat style tutorial likewise directs that in English the € symbol be placed before the figure.
