peccunier  (peccuniarie)  
  FEW:  pecunia 8,115b Gdf: ∅ GdfC:  pecuniaire 10,303a TL: pecunïaire 7,545 DEAF:  pecune (pecuniaire)  DMF:  pécunier  TLF:  pécuniaire  OED:  pecuniar a. and n.  / pecuniary a. and n.  MED:  pecunier a.  DMLBS:  pecuniaris 2162c / pucuniarius 2162c

The -iarie deviant form may suggest some influence from the English adjective pecuniary, even though its single Anglo-Norman attestation (1413) antedates the earliest English usage provided by the OED (1506) by almost a century.
