Summary

Description
Deutsch: Fossile Fische (vermutlich alles Exemplare von Palaeoniscum freieslebeni) in Schwarztonstein (d. h. Beckenfazies) des Kupferschiefers (Zechstein, Oberperm). Die Stücke stammen von alten Bergbauhalden in der Umgebung von Buchholz bei Nordhausen am Südrand des Harzes (Ilfelder Becken, Nordthüringen). Das 2 €-Stück dient als Größenmaßstab.

This image has currency in it to indicate scale.

Using coins for scale is discouraged as it will require people unfamiliar with them to look up the dimensions or guess, both of which defeat the purpose of the object in the first place. Coins can also reinforce a geographical bias, and some coins' designs are copyrighted.

Ideally, a photograph should include a ruler with the subject (example) or an added scale marking. SI ("metric") units are the most commonly used worldwide (see meter and centimeter).
