Frankincense and myrrh are incenses you would burn in your house if you want to pollute your air with micro-particles and make your house smell like a middle-eastern souk.
The only thing you want from the Three Kings story is the gold. Trust me on that one.
I only answered your question about what they are 🙂 I have no idea how much they’re worth. Probably too much if you don’t live in the middle-east, as you’d have to import that stuff I guess.

For the record, you can get myrrh resin for like 20-30 bucks a 4oz sack on Amazon.
A one pound sack of frankincense goes for about 20.
What was more valuable in the first century is anyone’s guess.
