Note | EXTRA SPECIAL SALE - PART 2: Part two of my extra special sale comprised entirely of exceptional specimens from my private collection, representing highlights of my collecting and dealing career. Another opportunity to acquire outstanding and unique seashells from one of the world’s pre-eminent collections. CONUS PERTUSUS: Just touching 60 mm, this giant exhibits a few small scars, but is otherwise in exemplary condition for such advanced size and age. As occasionally occurs, the late stage growth at the siphonal canal protrudes markedly, and is without pigment. Pin-point protoconch intact. For the Conidae specialist, or collector of giant sized shells. Size: 59.8 mm (length). Grading: F+++. Data: Off Malatia, Solomon Islands; upon coarse coral sand/rubble substrate; 6-12 m; dived; 1981. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
