Amber itself is actually not rare. But what is INSIDE the amber specimen is what is rare. Scientists are amazed to find prehistoric dna stuck in pieces of ancient amber. It is a natural preservative. Bugs, Insects, and others have been found which helps us discover more about the past!

Amber is fossilized tree sap, so I doubt that it's very rare.

Not rare at all.
