[edit] gulden vs. florin
The Netherlands Antilles page calls it a florin. The Dutch gulden page calls it a gulden. Does anyone know which is more correct? Are they interchangeable? Mom2jandk 02:59, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
The banknotes say gulden as does the website of the Bank of the Netherlands Antilles, so that must be the correct name. Alr 22:40, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
On the islands, the currency is called gulden in Dutch. In Papiamentu it is called florin. So I guess both are right. Saintkevin 18:12, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
The Florin/Guilden is no longer the curreny of the Netherlands. It has been replaced by the Euro. I'm not entirely sure how the page should change to accomodate that change, but I'll add that it has been replaced. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.182.234.154 (talk • contribs) 07:31, 11 April 2007
- The Netherlands Antillean gulden is still the currency of the Netherlands Antilles. The Netherlands Antilles are a separate country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands and are not part of the EU, so they have nothing to do with the euro. Dinsdagskind 19:40, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
