NoteRARE SPECIES WITH VERY RARE GIANT SIZE WOOOOW!! Extremely rare to get even virtually with such a great rare giant size and top conditions. Most of the specimens found are completely dead and old, here the real live collected and fresh intact colors-structure. This species is generally always buried in sand or mud, making it almost impossible to locate. They rarely emerge from the sand, except when attacked by fish or crabs, which expose them outside the sand. Look at this perfection of extended spire with ultra rare intact apex. The spire presents a crazy elegant and exquisite brown dark stripes all around with granulate effect. This species can reach the 100mm at it maximum size this here is 97mm with giant rare size. Some natural scars of life usual for this species , near the shoulder and lip side not really detracting the beauty. Seldom seen original operculum. F++++-F++. Found buried in thick yellow granulate sand about 10-11m deep. Cuastecomates, Jalisco, Mexico. January 2026. Value for this extremely Giant and rare exceptional Turritella willetti wit the best intact spire-apex and superb striped pattern: 50-70 euros . Good luck and happy shelling. MEXICO PACIFIC
