Weekend fun!!!
Another rock to guess and telediagnose! This one should be easy - I think - but I like it a lot. It's the gift of a friend. I hope foto quality is well enough. It is slightly brighter in reality. It is about 2 cm in diameter. Tell me in short words what it is, how it forms and one place where to find it.
Enjoy and have fun!

Looks like amber to me – a fossil resin of Tertiary (May I still use that word? *g*) trees, most likely some conifers.
In Germany, you could find it washed ashore by the North and Baltic Seas, and in some lignite mines. Sadly, they have been flooded by now.
I noticed a possible cemented breccia texture in the center, and thought of some kind of jasper or agate - ?
