Converting from New Zealand Dollar (NZD) to Netherlands Antilles Guilder (ANG)

What is New Zealand Dollar (NZD)

The New Zealand Dollar (NZD) is the official currency of New Zealand, as well as the Cook Islands, Niue, and Tokelau. It is often symbolized by the "＄" sign, but to distinguish it from other currencies, the code "NZD" is used in international transactions. Introduced in 1967, the NZD replaced the New Zealand Pound at a rate of two dollars for each pound.

The New Zealand Dollar is divided into 100 cents and is issued by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand. The currency comes in various denominations, including coins of 10, 20, 50 cents, and ＄1 and ＄2, as well as banknotes of ＄5, ＄10, ＄20, ＄50, and ＄100. The NZD is known for its stability and is often used as a benchmark for measuring the economic health of the country. Furthermore, New Zealand is known for its agricultural exports, including dairy and meat, which significantly influence the value of the NZD in global markets.

What is Netherlands Antilles Guilder (ANG)

The Netherlands Antilles Guilder (ANG) was the currency of the Netherlands Antilles until the dissolution of that territory in 2010. It is symbolized as "ƒ" and is further represented by the code "ANG." After the constitutional changes, the guilder remained in use in the Caribbean islands of Curaçao and Sint Maarten.

The guilder is subdivided into 100 cents, much like many other currencies. It is issued by the Central Bank of Curaçao and Sint Maarten. The Netherlands Antilles Guilder has a strong connection to the Netherlands, and its value is somewhat stable due to the backing of the euro, given the historical monetary ties between the two regions. This currency is vital for daily transactions in the islands where it circulates, including tourism and trade.
