So fossil hunting in mons klint. Are there any rules about what you can pick up and break open rocks? What fossils can you find there? Is the place worth going to?

So i fossil hunt mostly in beaches. Where the rocks and fossils are from denmark. Im in sweden but how can i date the rocks? When i dont know what formation they came from? And i have found sea urchins and crinoid stars. But can i also find teeth and bones? Mostly of the rocks are from the cretaceous. If i should look for teeth and bones should i look around the loose rocks for loose teeth and bones? Or in rocks? How does fossil bones look like when the water has worn them? Is there any chance of even finding teeth? Sorry for the newbie questions

Found this in a Swedish beach. The fossils there are from denmark. The top looks like a Eroded sea urchin but not sure what the other one is.

Found at one of my fossil spots in sweden. The fossils there come from denmark and the material is cretaceous roughly 80 mil. Atleast what the local museum said. Anyways what is this? Tried to scrape it off thought it was dirt. But i think its apart of the rock. Any ideas?

Need help in identifying problematic fish bone
The Amateur Paleontologist posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hey everyone Hope you're all doing well! While looking through unprepped/untouched blocks of chalk from last year's fieldwork session in the Late Cretaceous of Møns Klint (Denmark), I found one block that showed a little trace of fish bone. I scraped a bit around it with some dental tools, and managed to reveal the whole fossil. And I'm having quite some trouble identifying it... Could anyone help me? I've included pics and details of the specimen below. Pics: Note especially the 'ridges' in the upper half of the fossil Full detai -

I've had this ax for several years. It comes from Denmark, or at least that area. Made of ground stone, it contains a fossil that is approximately 5mm long. I have wondered since I got this what that fossil could be. Any help is appreciated. The ax: The fossil:

Imagine to pull this out from a block of clay, in a warm day in may. After just 30 minutes, i pulled this thing out from the clay in Gram claypit. This whale vertebrae is very rare in Denmark, and only few are found every year in the claypit I was so lucky! The clay is from miocene, and snails, shells are common. Also shark teeth can be found. What do you think?

ID Request - Anyone know what these fossilized teeth might belong to? It measures 19 x 9 x 9 mm. I believe it’s one premolar and two molars from a herbivorous mammal (pre last glacial period?). I found it inside the chalk cliffs of Ven island, in the Øresund strait between Sweden and Denmark.

Hello, I am new here so please bear with me, I have been picking these up over the last decade of walking my dog on the coast of Thyborøn in West Jutland, Denmark. Incidentally, this is where the sea-battle of Jutland took place during the first world war. My questions are very basic: 1) These are all fossils right? And if this is correct, 2) How old are they and by how much would you say their respective age differs, is this even possible to say? 3) Are any of these interesting or considered good quality? These

Yesterday I did find another interesting stone at a fishing trip. (I fish alot, and when no fish to catch I collect stones :-)) It's Flint stone with a White layer of Chalk/opal - est. 65-200 Ma. Please help me ID the Fossil - if it is a Fossil ? What do you think? Pictures taken from to sides of the stone. Best regards, Jens

I found this piece of flint at the Beach last week. I'm not sure what it is - and just wondering it might be a fossil. If you have any idea what is it and how old it is, please let me know. :-)

I usually find my own belemnites but I couldn't resist buying this one that's been attacked by the endolithic sponge Entobia. Belemnitella, maybe B. lanceolata (haven't checked it yet), from the Lower Maastrichtian Chalk of Denmark.
