As promised earlier, I will show some of my Danish findings here on the forum.
So here are some fish from Ejerslev moler pit on Mors, Denmark. (Eocene)

These are just prints in soft moler, which can be easily separated with the fingers; not from the hard cement stone.
Also of course, the last one is not a real fish but a starfish ;o)

Enjoy

Very impressive!

Wow very nice! It's nice to see some fossils from Moler deposits here. I've been to Mors a couple of times, and I've also searched in Moler deposits, and found the fossil fish shown on the added photo. I also visited the museum "Molermuseet", which is definitely wort a visit if you haven't already visited it (you can find it easily on Google Maps, by searching for Molermuseet). The shown fossil is also a print in soft Moler. The fish is a positive and a negative side by the way.

Regards,
Bram.

You have some very nice specimens there. My fossil fish seem tiny and rubish now!
