Israel - Set of Four "Rachel’s Tomb" Medals, circa 1940s A set of four medals dedicated to Rachel’s Tomb in Bethlehem, struck in various metals and finishes. Obverse: Depicts a raised image of the famous tomb and an olive tree beside it, with the inscription "קבר רחל" (Rachel’s Tomb), and on one of the medals also the word "ישראל" (Israel). Reverse: Blank, without inscription. The medals were likely produced in Palestine during the 1940s, as part of the tradition of commemorating holy sites and national symbols of the Jewish people. Beautiful and historically significant pieces, reflecting the deep connection to the Land of Israel and the enduring memory of Rachel our Matriarch during the Yishuv period.
