Investopedia explains Big Figure
For example, if a foreign currency was trading at 108.3457 and a money market security was trading at 108.6666, both would have big figures of 108. Traders will often not mention the big figure when quoting a security, assuming that other traders know this number.

In the U.S., the big figure is often referred to as the handle.
