There is no Jewish money - Jews use whichever currency is used in the country they live in, as do the other residents of those countries regardless of ethnic background.

If, on the other hand, you meant what is Israeli money called it's called the Israeli new shekel. Each shekel, like the pound with pence and dollar with cents, is made up of 100 agorot.

Jews who speak the language of the country (English, French, etc.), use whatever word everyone else uses.

In Hebrew, "money" is called kesef. In Yiddish, it's called gelt.

Unlike common Anti-Semitic tropes, Jews do not actually fetishize money.

Shekels. One shekel in those days was enough to live off of for a couple of months. One Shekel was divided into twenty gerah.
