Amber with inclusions provides a unique window into the prehistoric past. Inclusions are any organic or inorganic materials that were trapped in tree resin millions of years ago and became fossilized, surviving to this day. Most often, these are insects, arachnids, and plant fragments, but sometimes, truly unique finds are discovered.

Amber, or 'the sun stone,' has been valued by collectors and jewelers for millennia. However, not all specimens are the same. Valuing amber is a complex process that depends on a combination of unique characteristics. It is important for a collector to be able to distinguish these nuances to understand which stone is common and which is a real treasure.

When working with a collection of antique silver coins, the need for sorting arises. It is important to determine which specimens will remain in a personal collection and which will be put up for sale. This process helps to systematize existing assets and formulate a future strategy.
