inside my amber #592668

Asked August 28, 2019, 4:50 AM EDT

Would someone please shed some light on my situation regarding this amber piece? I took it to my local museum and I was informed that this piece in fact does NOT have a partial lizard inclusion. That it’s only a plant stem with flower petals. On the other hand, at the same time I was told to contact George Poiner because he apparently says that it does have a lizard inclusion which was circled for me in the last uploaded image. Please help
