Having Trouble With Condition For Default Nodeset Sel

having condition
Hi Folks,

I am trying to look up a country code in a list of supported currencies, with a default to US if it is not found. I am using the XSLT 1.0 idiom of

nodeset1[condition] | nodeset2[not(condition)]

for a mutually exclusive result, however for the life of me I can't seem to find a suitable condition - I probably just need a figurative whack on the side of the head to help me "think different" (or should that be "differently?"). I have tried several different variations of the following with no luck, though I am probably just overlooking something really obvious:

<xsl:variable name="currency" select="$currency-data//currency[@code=$country-code and @code != 'US'] | $currency-data//currency[not(@code=$country-code and @code != 'US')]" />

Nothing seems to work no matter how I arrange that - the US currency is always unioned into the set. I'm sure that's the wrong condition to use, and there is something relatively simple I can add, but I'm just not seeing it.

Does anyone have any suggestions, or perhaps a nerf mallet?

Thanks in advance
