Jimmy From Holland Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I found this stone in a pile of stones from a ruin in northern France in the middle of the border with Belgium 1993. I always thought it was a fish print. a few weeks ago after I cleaned my first fish fossils. I looked at this fish with a different eye, is it really a fish? the shape is correct, the scales are correct and it seems to have fins, but the scales pattern runs through that, which I find strange. at the pelvic fin at the end, the stone is 1 cm deeper, but the fin runs through it. so who can help me. thank you in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockwood Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 If I remember right this is sort of like an interference pattern caused by water movement in multiple directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
