guilder

For example, the modern-day (2002) guilder was fixed at an exchange rate of 2.2 GLD = 1 EUR.

The Dutch guilder used to be practically tied to the Mark for several decades before the Euro was introduced.

The Netherlands replaced the Guilder with the Euro in 2002, with an exchange rate of 2.20371 Guilders per Euro.

Most people in the Netherlands didn't, where the then telco state monopoly charged 25 guilder cents per minute for calls.

It was not a tenner by the way, it was five notes of one guilder (1) and two of one rijksdaalder (2,50).

If it was in guilders, then it will be repaid in guilders (or in sterling, at whatever the current nominal sterling/guilder exchange rate is).

There's a pretty continuous line between the carolus guilder and the euro.

My uncle used to save 5 cent guilder coins (stuivers in Dutch).

I started saving at age 6, on a 1 guilder (I'm from the Netherlands) weekly allowance.

I'm having trouble finding decent data on this, but it looks like a guilder averaged about 10g of silver at the time?

Nicest money I've seen since the Dutch guilder went out of circulation.

Gold, guilder, pound, dollar; the world trends toward one monetary standard, one unit of account.

Talking about Dutch reminds me of the old commercial saying "uw gulden is hier een daalder waard", translated "your guilder is worth a daler/thaler/dollar here".

Before the Euro was launched in 1999, global reserves were split among many more national currencies (the French franc, the Dutch guilder, etc.), which naturally diluted the dollar's total share more than the current "USD vs.

"...and get the very best of the guilder-investing angels in their round." I can understand the reasoning but are the 'best' of this pool as good as those from the dollar-pool?

The NLG (Dutch Guilder) was roughly like a DM (Deutsche Mark) but not quite: the Dutch currency was extremely colourful and way prettier than other currencies.

I was referring specifically to the Florin/Gulden/Guilder coins being used across Europe in Martin Luther's time, which contained about 3.5g gold, which at today's gold price would be worth over $500 just as bullion, but it was apparently worth about twice that in terms of purchasing power.
