Magnificent beauty of nature. This species is very difficult to obtain in good conditions, they are usually full of erosion, scars and worm holes. Many of them are full of calcareous adhesions that do not allow to see the condition of the shell, only after cleaning. Hard to clean the most. In very few cases there are specimens with very consistent and elegant designs-stripes like this ones here. Found attached between stones with brown algae, soft corals and mud. Between 3-5m deep. Cuastecomates, Jalisco, Mexico. July 2026. Value for the most dense striped pattern you will see, really unreal aesthetic stripes: 60-70 euro or more. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC
