$125.00

You are admiring a highly coveted, longtime favorite of mine & Conus collectors worldwide, the famous (Conus) Leptoconus milneedwardsi (Jousseaume, 1894) measuring 107.5mm and graded F+/F++...such elegant, super streamlined form featuring a natural lip & an incredible stepped spire formation along with an outstanding color pattern with beautiful tenting displayed...an amazing, super deep H2O specimen. This beauty was collected by a Trawler from deep water South of India. Also known as the \"Glory of India\" & becoming quite difficult to acquire today. This member of the Conidae family will always be a star in your collection...make sure it\'s yours!! Thank you for visiting our store this afternoon...and an excellent choice, too.

***Special Note: This is a famous species, the early history has been documented by Peter Dance in his Rare Shells (1969). A much sought after Cone of elegant proportions and attractive petterning. It has taken a legendary place in the history of shell collecting. The Conus milneedwardsi along with the Conus gloriamaris (Glory of the Sea Cone) and the Conus bengalensis (Bengal Cone) are in my humble opinion the top 3 Conus specimens in any Conus collection.
