Many years ago while beachcombing the bolivaer penesular i found several pieces of dunnage wood. one (2x4) had serious figure on one end. i planed it and a bueatiful dark brown piece of tropical wood appeared. really wierd----it had METALIC SHEEN all through it. not sorta-- the real thing. a bronze color that really glowed in sunlight. Wow's everyone. i have talked to several wood dealers with no luck. i would appreciate any ideas as to its name. thanks----------old forester

Yup...a pic would help...although...what you are seeing could be mineral deposits from seawater.
