The pictures taken are real and we do our best to make the color look exactly like the original. All colors are fresh in my shells as I collect everything myself and clean it before the auction. Some colors such as the orange color in the aperture may fade over time. But usually the color stays the same for months or years. Found attached between muddy stones about 7m deep. Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico. April 2025. Value for the most dense Orange of all and great wide nodules with intact great scales: 120-150 euros. High resolution image available on request.
