Warsaw Guetto Banknote

Guetto Banknote Jewish star History Photo of Star of David on a Warsaw banknote is courtesy of David Diamant and if you have more information about it please email him: 313diamant@gmail.com
David Diamant wrote to me that these banknotes were allegedly issued by the Jewish underground on spring 1941 but it is not clear if they were really used in the guetto. On the banknotes appear the letters RZwW which stand for Rada Zydowska w. Warszawie = Jewish council in Warsaw = The Judenrat
