Description: Get free shipping for your entire order when you buy 3 or more shells at the same time. Another consignment sale by IslandShells!ULTRA! Conus bengalensis #21 93.5mm, Okutani 1968, RARE GEM BEAUTY from Thailand . Collected by trawling in 100-120 meters of water, off Phuket Island, Thailand, from an old collection. The number of super-rare shells that have become available since I started collecting in the 60's is amazing---the milneedwardsi and the bengalensis cones being the two biggest changes. Those two cones went from being so scarce they were rarely found in museums, (much less personal collections) to being beauties that just about anyone can own now---I mean, they used to be so rare, they were almost never included in shell collecting books, amazing!. And this shell, a fabulous beauty---with a gorgeous pattern, intact spire, a smooth body and a great lip is something that I don't see often---a rare, nice-sized GEM of the species, a special shell that will look terrific sitting on your shelf!The ultra-perfect shell for a first-class collection. As for normal disclaimers, we do the best we can with photos, but color is tricky, especially since cell phone cameras automatically lean towards flesh-tone coloring, (that's why so many of the photos of shells on eBay show up with more orange than is really there, the camera changes the color, and damm if I can figure out how to stop that from happening, but I try, honest!As for feedback, as your know, sellers live and die by the feedback you leaved, (please leave fives!) so if you have a problem, just let me know! After all, I'm retired, and all messages go directly to my phone, so unless I'm out shell collecting I will get back to you pronto-like!Shell collecting! Now there's a phrase that brings smiles to your eyes, doesn't it!Anyhow, if you have read this far, you have my apologies and best wishes from those of us at IslandShells323.
