gulden vs. florin[edit]

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]

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)[reply]

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 It has been replaced by the Euro.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)[reply]

Replacement with US Dollar?[edit]

If I understand the referenced source, it only applies to Bonaire, Saba, and Sint Eustatius (the BES islands apparently).

Is there any source that says Curaçao and Sint Maarten will use the US dollar? Or am I misreading the reference? Gecko G (talk) 00:23, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll dig around for sources on Curacao and Sint Maarten, but yes, they are committed to the switch as well. I'm not sure if it will be on Oct 10 or Jan 1, though.—Kww(talk) 00:26, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Security features[edit]

Isn't the EURion constellation a security feature too? It prevents the copying of the notes. And it's on pretty much all the notes in circulation. --Dwerg85 (talk) 15:39, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why no Euro?[edit]

all the french colonies seem to, why don't the dutch ones? 203.217.59.87 (talk) 11:24, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The former Netherlands Antilles, and the new countries Curacao and St. Maarten are independent countries within the dutch kingdom. They have their own currency. The French colonies are integral parts of the country and thus are part of EU. Hence the euro. --161.22.50.51 (talk) 21:13, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The link on note 2 appears to be broken. 2601:1C0:4402:1600:E455:15D7:9698:997F (talk) 17:52, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
