Well it's your local beach, but the all inclusive for everyone else, costs including time, travel and accommodation makes for a very expensive rock. By contrast the prices on ebay might be considered reasonable if rhomb porphyr is your thing. You can set prices for what you want - the question is - are they selling? If so then you're up and running! I could make a quazillion dollar😆 Do I qualify for a finder's fee?

I promise Denmark has Black or clear flint and granite + rhomb phorphyr and that is that. Really nothing worth trading. Really nothing worth trading, tut! Did you read up on Grimes Graves - that black flint was so important it was traded widely across the continent at a time when archaeologists had previously thought that 'society' was just a few folk sharing a hut and a goat. Here's a black flint from Norfolk, England that comes from broadly the same area as Grimes Graves. I found the flint then later researching it, found the info on GG. We were visiting friends there. When I exclaimed how black the flint was and it was really remarkable, the said they never noticed - it was just what the driveway and local paths were made of. I borrowed a piece. One day I might re-ignite the trade and value of Norfolk black flint. My wife says I have Norfolk'n chance. Anyway here's a starter: Not well polished at all since it was cut and facetted on a general purpose diamond grinding disk, but hey! Probably around 12mm across. When I find my calipers again, I'll let you know...
