Israeli Jewels for tourists

Someone who visited Israel wrote: "I would like to buy myself a piece of jewelry when I visit Jerusalem and Tiberias. I don't mean something 'souveniry' but something that reflects the country".

 The barley symbol is well known from the byble, the symbol of Shavuot

If you pass nearby Beit Dagon in Haifa you can find it is also its symbol.
 The coin of Agrippa I (37 - 44 C.E.) featuring three barleys, was the inspiration for the Israel  1 Agora coin which was  issued on 1960 
The name "agora" was taken from Sam. 2:36.
