Make:defining macros with filenames that have '$' in them

I have to include a file with '$' in its name (i.e. abc.$cf) in
a macro definition in Make. For the life of me I couldnt figureout how to 
escape that specific '$' sign in the make file so make wont try to expand
abc.$cf into "abc.f"

How can I do this? Any hints from ya gurus will be appreciated!

Thanks,
