When I fetch the data from Bloomberg using SEDOL, how do I get the currency in which it is priced?

I would like to know the base currency of an equity. For example, I want to load the price timeseries for a stock, I fetch the data using the SEDOL code but I want to get the currency in which it is priced.

One can retrieve the currency as follows:

d = fetch(b,'2005973','GETDATA','CRNCY',[],[],'SEDOL1')

2005973 is the SEDOL number for IBM. Note that no overrides are being used in this case and hence the two empty inputs.
