Ais Indians traded amber for tools and tobacco
According to the Quaker merchant Jonathan Dickinson, the wild Indians just south of St. Augustine combed the beaches for amber and would trade five pounds of it for a mirror, an axe, a couple of knives, and three or four twists of tobacco. [Note 85: Jonathan Dickinson’s Journal]
