Note

ATTACK POSITION COBRA FORM FORM WOOOOOW!! VERMETIDAE - Tripsycha tulipa (Chenu, 1843). Incredible once in a lifetime rolled like a "cobra snake" form WOOOW!! This is definitely one of the hard to get specimens removing stones very deep between huge stones and not breaking the shell. Rare original operculum with the best intact and complete rare apex you can get. Natural complete conditions with no cleaning process, Some natural imperfections as usual not really detracting the beauty of this crazy unique form. Some kind of erosion and irregular form only in the places where the specimen was attached to the rocks. The most impressive shape with elegant forming shell. Something incredible about this unique piece is that it was attached in two large stones and the chances of it coming out intact were almost impossible, but luck was on my side and a magic blow with my tool dislodged it from the two stones. Elegant unique form, 60mm the shell from apex to aperture together. F++. The most exceptional high selection of this extreme rough species with the best form and great conditions. Really hard to remove from stones and almost impossible to get intact, natural conditions. Found attached under large stone with mud about 2 to 3m deep. Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico. March 2026. Value for the most exclusive "Attack position cobra snake form" : 30-33 euro. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC
