In some ghettos and concentration camps, the Nazis issued unique currency for inmates to use during their confinement. Nazi leaders forced inmates to design the currency in line with Nazi standards. This meant, for instance, the imprisoned artist Peter Kien had to acquiesce to Nazi demands when he drew Moses and the Tablets of Stone. Notice that, as Alan York originally researched, the Moses depicted on the Terezin currency has curly hair, a hooked nose, and long fingers that cover up the “Thou shall not kill” commandment. Nazi official Reinhard Heydrich mandated this image of Moses.
