Dear friends.
 
 
Yep !, Im interested on the most preciated shell for every CONCH-LER, is
not about rare shells, is not about "MORE VALIOUS" shells, is about the
aesthetic sens of everyone.
 
Sample.
 
 
I love Murex (chicoreus) cervicorni, but the most beautiful (and
valuated) shells in the family are in the pterinotus and phillopterus
gena.
 
I love Cyprea mariae, a small, delicate and common caurie.
 
Conus pertusus, a good red specimen, is the most spectacular conus in my
collection, but is not he most rare, or the pricest.
 
Voluta hebrea is for mi the most beautiful shell in the most desired
volutidae family.
 
Latiaxis is may be the must difficult family.  Are spectacullar all of
them !
