Cones are so much fun to find---you're snorkeling along in 5-10 feet of water over sand, and suddenly, you see a trail with a bump at the end of it---and lo and behold, the bump is a pulicarius cone! Or you're turning rocks over near the shore, and there in the sand under a rock is a pennaceus cone, or a textile cone, or... Or you're scuba diving in 60 feet of water, and there, sitting on the sand, is a gorgeous, recently dead striatus cone! Or you're walking across a flat reef in inches of water, and there's nothing---until your eye picks out the first camouflaged one, and then, all of a sudden, you find yourself literally surrounded by miles cones, they're everywhere!. No wonder we love to go shell collecting, it's such an adventure and treasure hunt all rolled into one.. Anyhow, as the video shows, this cocoa-colored near-GEM, found by a diver in 60 feet of water in the sand under rubble, at Bantayan Island, the Philippines 2019, with its dramatic banded pattern is a terrific shell from that will look fantastic sitting on your shelf!The perfect shell for a first-class 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.
