ULTRA! Conus Gloriamaris w/o #9 134.2mm,Chemnitz 1777,GIGANTIC BEAUTY from the Philippines. Collected by tangle nets in60 meters of water, Balut Island, the Philippines, 2020. You know, I'm old. I mean, really, I can remember when there was only 26 of these shells in the entire world. I also can remember that while visiting the Philippines as a kid (thirteen at the time?) a photo was taken of me holding TWOgloriamaris, and people got so excited about the photo it ended up in aHawaiian Shell Newsarticle... Then the day came when we heard that someonesnorkelingin the Solomons had found half dozen, that 's right, half a dozen! And he KEPT ON finding half a dozengloriamarisalmost every time he went out, the lucky beach bum!. Nowanyonecan own one, even you, butgiganticones like this are still on theveryhard-to-find list.This gorgeous shell is the middle-sized one of threegloriamaristhat I am about to list, (the next one is ultra-gigantic, 10mm larger than the 1973 world record shell was) has a terrific pattern, nice dark color, an unworn spire, a great lip, and a body that is in gorgeous condition considering its size! And even though it does have a repair near its mouth, it still has that magical something that says that this gigantic baby is a one-of-a-kindGlory of the Seas.Andas thephotos show, it is an exquisite, almostnear-GEMthat will lookwonderfulon your shelf!The ultra-perfect shell for a first-rate collection...

As for normal disclaimers, we do the best we can with photos, but color is tricky, especially since cell phone cameras automatically lean towards flesh-tone coloring, (that's why so many of the photos of shells on show up with more orange than is really there, the camera changes the color, and damm if I can figure out how to stop that from happening, but I try, honest!As for response, as your know, sellers live and die by the response you leaved, (please leave fives!) so if you have a problem, just let me know! After all, I'm retired, and all messages go directly to my phone, so unless I'm out shell collecting I will get back to you pronto-like!Shell collecting! Now there's a phrase that brings smiles to your eyes, doesn't it!Anyhow, if you have read this far, you have my apologies and best wishes from those of us at IslandShells323. And don't forget,

Home is where your collection is!
