The best way to look for Amber is pop down to the beach at night with a uv (blacklight) lamp. They can be easily made as well just using the right coloured filters laid over a standard light. Amber will show up and luminesce slightly under a blacklight.
Yes looks like amber to me Steve 😉 I must miss so much of it as not looking for it but there must be loads I've missed. Well done once again. Looked cold. Bbrrr. Super job 💪
Looks like us NOX boys like getting out before first light... Just did this Sunday LOL started at 4.45 am trying to find nuggets at my favourite park before the rush of people showed up, so funny mate few people showed up just after 5 am and started setting up the picnic gear and the Sprinkles went off, i know that park like the back of my hand, and even know the time's the sprinkles go on at the different sections of the park, so i waited from the distance and just like clock work it rained on there picnic LOL... I'm yet to upload that video GL&HH Jim TEAM NOX 👍
I prefer getting out early jim mate that way we get a longer day 👍 have a great christmas brother and wishing you the best of luck for 2020. Take care buddy.... team nox 🍻
That looks l,ike amber. Native amber isn't worth much. If it feels warm and plasticky, and floats in salt water, that helps to confirm it. It used to be burned for the perfume.
Top marks for the early start! Admirable!!! I can see why the sea glass is favoured in your household - it's lovely! I would say that piece is amber mostly because it's difficult to think what else it could possibly be. I would expect it to feel quite light. If we don't hear from you beforehand Steve, my very best wishes to you and yours for Christmas and the new year and keep doing what you're doing! Here's to your channel continuing to grow in 2020.
Good hunt with plenty of coins looks like amber to me the easiest way to tell is its only half the weight of any other stone all the best from us in Norfolk
Well done on all those coins👍 without looking into it I think amber is fossilised tree sap/resin and should float in salt water or try a hot pin and should give off a smell that’s not like melting plastic👍
Cheers mate will try some test.s on it soon. It could be either amber or copal both are made from tree resin but amber is millions of years old copal is a fraction of that age. 👍
Just a quick update i did the salt water amber test and it passed. So it is real amber 👍

Heat a pin mate, amber is like hard wax. If a hot needle melts it its amber.
