| Note | ULTRA RARE BLACK BROWN COLOR FORM WOOOOW!! Ultra rare dark. Less than a dozen found in my entire career searching for this species for many years.

This rarity shows elaborate striking spines branching into exceptional beauty. With intact lip, siphon and apex this is a seldom seen conditions for this size. Some natural imperfections in a few spines around spire otherwise Museum piece. F+++. Magnificent high level stunning conditions. In my own experience, the real beauty of this specimens cannot really be appreciated in the photos. I tried my best but it is not enough, this pieces are really unique and impressive in your hands. Great to add in your collection and make comparations of this crazy variable species! The best selected specimens with the best conditions. Choose your favorite in this special auction! Very hard to get with this incredible quality!! For Muricids lovers and advancer collectors , see pictures! This species is common in my region but maybe 99% of the specimens in the open sea shows strong erosion, drill holes and several scars in my own personal opinion and experience after diving for them for more than 15 years. Some rare populations hidden in bays or lagoons present good conditions but are rarely seen. Here is the best selection of this species with incredible spines, shapes and coloration. Found attached between big stones about 5m to 7m deep. Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico. May 2025. Value for this ultra rare Black-Brown unique color form : 150-180 euro. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC |
