    Description

    Taken live in the late 1970's off Sanibel Island, Florida
    I do not ship internationally. However, I do provide free shipping to a valid secondary (relative/intermediary) address that is within the United States.
    I do not grade shells. The flash makes it difficult, but the photos speak for themselves.
    I always hand selected from what was available at the time.

    Sorry, but due to the fragility of shells and coral and the difficulty in packing, this must be sold as is. Please view photos carefully.
    Please
    see
    many
    other items
    that may be of interest.
    At one time I owned a Specimen Shell Store.
    All items I sold were specimen quality and hand selected.
    These items are from my personal inventory.
    If you are a specimen collector, please check back frequently. I will continually be adding other specimen shells.
    I have an extremely large inventory. So if there is another family or species of shell that you are looking for, let me know. I am trying to list different families other than murex, cypraea and conus.
    If you are looking for anything in particular, contact me. Perhaps I have what you are searching for.
    Thank you for viewing.
