On the islands, the currency is called gulden in Dutch. In [[Papiamentu]] it is called florin. So I guess both are right. [[User:Saintkevin|Saintkevin]] 18:12, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

The Florin/Guilder are 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 It has been replaced by the Euro.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.

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)[reply]

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)[reply]
