BUG: decimal.Decimal treated as string in DataFrame.to_excel()

[buhtz]

Pandas version checks

• I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

• I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

• I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import pandas as pd
from decimal import Decimal

df = pd.DataFrame({
    'foo': list('ABC'),
    'val': [
        Decimal('332344'),
        Decimal('6.324'),
        Decimal('87.397812')
    ]
})

print(df)
df.to_excel('p.xlsx')

from openpyxl import Workbook
wb = Workbook()
ws = wb.active

the_float = 1.2345
ws['A1'] = Decimal('1.2345')
ws['A2'] = the_float

wb.save('x.xlsx')

Issue Description

I use decimal.Decimal as type for float values in a DataFrame.
Exporting them via to_excel() resulting in Excel cells with strings not floats. I tried xlsxwriter and openpyxl as engine.

See my MWE it seems that openpyxl itself can handle Decimal very well. The result is a real float not a string.

So the problem must somewhere in the pandas layer.

btw: Your Issue formula is to restrictive. I have no way to test the issue on the current upstream version. There are strict technical reasons for this. I haven't tested with upstream but checked the checkbox to be able to submit the Issue.

Expected Behavior

Create real float values in the Excel cells.
