Description: . About this shell: Conidae Conus AulicusAuthor: Linnaeus, 1758Common Name: Princely / Guilding ConeSize: 126.15 mmLocality: Okinawa, JapanOrigin: Collected live on sand at 25 feet depth Big, beautiful color and pattern. We were lucky to find this beauty nearly 50 years ago during one of our many dives in the Okinawan waters. This is part of our late father’s large collection of seashells he obtained while stationed on Okinawa, Japan in 1974-1978. His interests in shells grew from more than the Indo-Pacific species when he engaged in trading his shells with some of the prominent collectors around the world. He was an avid scuba diver and seashell collector. The results of many deep dives led to the creation of a collection of some of the best shells Okinawa had to offer. Ted’s shells have been cared for and stored for the past 50 years. All are in excellent condition. My sister and I are listing shells after researching them for value, quality and uniqueness. We are not conchologists and are giving our opinion on the condition and quality of the shell when compared to other listings. Thanks for your interest in this shell. Please check out the feedback provided by satisfied seashell buyers.
