As someone who is not Catholic, what is a typical Rosary bead supposed to look like or are there typical ones at all?

We have become a country where every citizen is looked on with suspicion because jthey ust might be a gang member or terrorist.

i don’t see any with 13 beads...
in this case, it seems to be a legitimate suspicion...

Rosary beads can be made from plastic, metal, wood, whatever material that can be molded, really.

My Rosary was handed down through 3 generations of my family and is made with crushed rose petals and hand-linked silver ringlets. It’s really a matter of preference, but I want to say that there are some requirements held by the church. What they are, I am unsure.
