I solved it this way:
<s:textfield key="netpl" value="%{getText('format.money',netpl)}" />
Then in your class path put a file called package.properties with the following:
# used to format dates, numbers in the jsp files (display)
format.time = {0,time}
format.dateShort = {0,date,MM/dd/yyyy}
format.number = {0,number,###,##0.0##}
format.percent = {0,number,##0.00'%'}
format.money = {0,number,\u00A4###,##0}
format.moneyDecimal = {0,number,\u00A4###,##0.00}
