How to ignore part of a value?

I'm trying to create a variable that ignores the "$" in the text of a label and I don't know how, any ideas?

local item = script.Parent.Parent.Title.Text -- "$10"
local itemName = -- I want this to = 10

Just get everything after the first character

local itemName = item:sub(2)
