It depends.

If the trailing zeros (the ones to the right) are there for a good reason then there are 4 significant figures. However, it is possible that these zeros are there for purely conventional reasons - for example, to indicate that something cost 47 units of currency, and convention requires the extra zeros. In that case there are only two sig figs.
