Rfv-sense: Dutch coin (a guilder) is this an alternative spelling, an archaic one, an obsolete one, a misspelling or what? Mglovesfun (talk) 15:39, 9 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Definitely an alternative spelling, perhaps archaic (but then so is the term 'guilder' itself nowadays). Influenced no doubt by the verb gild. Google books does have a few references for 'Dutch gilder' in reference to the coin. —CodeCat 17:15, 9 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
