Dutch Guilders Banknotes & Coins We Accept

To exchange your Dutch Guilders for cash, select the coins or banknotes you want to add to your account below.

About Dutch Guilders Exchange

The Dutch Guilder (NLG) was the official currency of the Netherlands until it was replaced by the Euro in 2002, making all Guilder banknotes and coins withdrawn from circulation. We accept all denominations of Dutch Guilder banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.

Current Dutch Guilder Banknotes

As the Dutch Guilder is no longer in circulation, there are no current-series banknotes — every Guilder note you hold is a withdrawn issue. The Netherlands exchanged its Guilders for Euros over two decades ago, so any notes you come across today are collector or legacy items from before 2002.

Old Series & Damaged Notes

Unlike most high street exchanges, we accept the full range of withdrawn Dutch Guilder banknotes, including higher-value issues such as the 100 Guilder note issued in 1993 and the 250 Guilder note issued in 1986, as well as lower-denomination notes from across the decades. We also accept damaged notes, provided they are at least 50% intact, though the rate offered may be slightly lower to reflect the condition.

Dutch Guilder Coins

We buy Dutch Guilder coins too, including denominations such as the 5 Gulden coin and the 2.5 Gulden coin, along with smaller cent pieces and everything in between. Because coins require additional handling, the rate is typically a little lower than for banknotes, but we are one of the few services in the UK that will take them at all.

Dutch Guilder Exchange FAQ

Are Dutch Guilders still legal tender in the Netherlands?

No. The Dutch Guilder was replaced by the Euro on 1 January 2002, and Guilder banknotes and coins have not been legal tender since then. The Dutch central bank, De Nederlandsche Bank, accepted Guilder notes for a period after the changeover, but that exchange window has now closed — which is why specialist services like ours are one of the few remaining options for converting them.

I have a mix of old Dutch Guilder banknotes from different decades — can I send them all together?

Yes! We accept Dutch Guilder banknotes issued across a wide range of years, so there is no need to separate them out before posting. Simply box up everything you have, post it to us yourself, and we will assess all the notes together. We will pay you within 5 working days of receiving them via bank transfer or PayPal, and if you are not happy with our offer, we will return everything to you free of charge.

Do you accept damaged or torn Dutch Guilder banknotes?

Yes, we do accept damaged Dutch Guilder notes, provided each note is at least 50% intact. Most high street bureaux de change will not touch damaged withdrawn currency, but we can still offer a rate — which may be slightly lower than for notes in good condition. If you are unsure whether a particular note qualifies, feel free to contact us before sending.

Can I exchange Dutch Guilder coins as well as banknotes?

Yes. We accept a range of Dutch Guilder coins, from smaller cent denominations right up to the larger Gulden pieces. The exchange rate for coins is slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling involved, but we are one of the few UK services that will buy them at all.

I also have leftover Euros and some old pre-Euro currencies from other European countries — can you help?

Yes! If you picked up a mix of currencies during your travels, we can help with those too. We exchange Euros as well as other withdrawn pre-Euro currencies such as Deutsche Marks, French Francs, and Spanish Pesetas, so you can send everything together and we will handle it all in one go.
