| Name | Ceratostoma foliatum - KANNER COLLECTION , Gmelin 1791 |
| Size | 61.0 mm, w/o |

| Note | Sublime specimen with wonderful intense banding on the body whorl and expanded wide varices. The foliatum has beautiful form, proportion, heavy weight/size ratio and has a truly striking appearance. The shell features the best characteristics of the species and makes it a collector's prize foliatum in any collection. Hard to find one much better than this specimen.

The shell shows minor wear of the protoconch. Grade: GEM minus. |
