Leporicypraea mappa - OPALESQUE , A PHENOMENON OF LEPORICYPRAEA
Size
73.5 mm
Locality
Negros, Philippines
Note
OPALESQUE......Enjoys the finest opalized porcelain, purple-pink-opaque, over the base and overlapping both lower margins. Pink perfect terminals. Upper deck pattern has a halo effect due to the opalizaion. Ultra-mature. Ultra-callous. Heavy, in keeping with the better opalesque. A few minor blemishes neither here nor there and outweighed unreservedly by its strong suits. Grade: F+++/Gem. Provenance: from my own collection. By local fishermen; Pagbilao Bay, Quezon, Negros, Philippines.
