The euro (not the Euro, James) will have replaced the French franc,
so for instance in Réunion, French Guyana, the French Southern
Territories, Guadaloupe, Martinique, Monaco, and St Pierre &
Miquelon, the euro will be used. French Polynesia uses the CFP franc,
XPF, which as far as I know is not identical to the FRF. Likewise the
Netherlands Antilles uses the Netherlands Antillian guilder, ANG,
which as far as I know is not identical to the NLG.
