Gulden 上市 Deposited
The gold Gulden was a name given in Germany to the Florin (q.v.). These coins gradually deteriorated in fineness, whereas those of Hungary and Austria retained their original value and purity and were distinguished by the name of Ducats. The Ducat gradually supplanted the gold Gulden and by the end of the seventeenth century the coinage of the latter was practically obsolete.
Austria and Hungary issued gold coins of eight Gulden (twenty Francs) and four Gulden (ten Francs) in recent years.
