Description: Get free shipping for your entire order when you buy 3 or more shells at the same time. ULTRA! Conus ammiralis princeps sumbaensis #23, 48.5mm, Linnaeus 1758, WOW BEAUTY from Indonesia . Found by a diver in 60 feet of water at Labuan Bajo, Sumbawa, Indonesia, 2023. You know, Indonesia used to be so remote---an area of millions of small uninhabited islands spread over hundreds of thousands of miles of ocean---well, growing up, it just wasn't the kind of place that you thought would one day become a major producer of shells, but it has! In fact, recently, Indonesia has produced some of the most awesome and gorgeous shells of the world, shells like this one, and man am I glad about that! . And there is something about the Ammiralis cone that just grabs you... I remember the first ammiralis I found while walking along the beach on Kwajalein. Scott Johnson has some great pictures of live ones he has found and photographed in their habitat in the Kwajalein area on his website, (just Google Kwajalein, you should find it easy.) Anyhow, I had been walking along the beach just after a storm looking for old WW2 machine-gun rounds and such, when there, lying on the sand just in front of me was a still live ammiralis, so he was live collected even if he was a "beached" shell, ha! Only got one other ammiralis that way, a small gem, and today, fifty years later, they still are two of my favorite shells! . And as the video shows, this outrageously gorgeous one---beautifully patterned, dark, a GEM with a nice spire, an unscarred body, and a beautiful lip---simply a fabulous shell that will look wonderful on your shelf! The ultra-perfect shell for a first-rate collection... As for normal disclaimers, we do the best we can with photos, but color is tricky, especially since cell phone cameras automatically lean towards flesh-tone coloring, (that's why so many of the photos of shells on eBay show up with more orange than is really there, the camera changes the color, and damm if I can figure out how to stop that from happening, but I try, honest! As for feedback, as your know, sellers live and die by the feedback you leaved, (please leave fives!) so if you have a problem, just let me know! After all, I'm retired, and all messages go directly to my phone, so unless I'm out shell collecting I will get back to you pronto-like! Shell collecting! Now there's a phrase that brings smiles to your eyes, doesn't it! Anyhow, if you have read this far, you have my apologies and best wishes from those of us at IslandShells323. And don't forget, Home is where your collection is! ULTRA!
