A:John Shelby Spong (Born of a Woman: A Bishop Rethinks the Birth of Jesus) says that among people he knows in New Testament circles, the universal assumption is that the magi were not actual people. It is a lovely story but all we can ever have is what is in Matthew's Gospel, and that does not tell us how much frankincense and myrrh or in what form.
Another Answer:
The Scripture does not mention the form of the gifts given to Jesus
