[edit] Divisions

Until 1802, the Netherlands Indies gulden was subdivided into 20 stuiver, each of 4 duit, as in the Netherlands. However, according to the stuiver and Dutch gulden, the Dutch stuiver was divided into 8 duit or 16 penning. So, it woudl seem odd for the Netherlands Indies duit to be worth twice as much as in the Netherlands itself. Nik42 05:02, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
