| Item | # 0003824567 | | Family | Conidae | | Name | Conus princeps - SPECIAL SHOULDER PATTERN |
| Size | 35 mm, w/o |
| Locality | Cuastecomates, Jalisco, Mexico |
| Note | RARE UNIQUE WITH ABSENT STRIPES AROUND THE SHOULDER!! I have never seen anything like this on the shoulder with those kinds of missing lines, creating a banded effect with the orange background color. The rest of the lines are thick and shaped like mountain contours. Something curious and very imaginative is that between the lines there is an “XI” in Roman numerals, something unique and incredible. The Orange color is so fresh and strong with exceptional conditions combined with dream stripes all around. Spectacular spire with awesome patter , intact siphon and lip, original operculum. F+++-F++++.
Magnificent beauty of nature. This species is very difficult to obtain in good conditions, they are usually full of erosion, scars and worm holes. Many of them are full of calcareous adhesions that do not allow to see the condition of the shell, only after cleaning. Hard to clean the most. In very few cases there are specimens with very consistent and elegant designs-stripes like this ones here. Do not miss this unique opportunity to get the real great selected and exceptional fresh orange color rarity's, choose your favorite in this great auction. For advancer Conus collectors. Found attached between stones with brown algae, soft corals and mud. Between 3-5m deep. Cuastecomates, Jalisco, Mexico. August 2025. Value for this special shoulder pattern and banding form with deep Orange color and superb thick stripes: 60-65 euro or more. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC |
