Can't name the coral, but the shell looks more like Chama lazarus (Linne)
than C. brassica (see Shells of the Philippines).

coral or what?  If it is coral, does anyone know what species or what type,

Yes, Tom, although I didn't recognize the coral, I wondered if the Chama species was lazarus instead of brassica.   I wish we could get some of the eBay sellers to give data  or, at least, indicate whether data is available or not.  This is a pretty
little combination, but I don't know if I want to buy a non-Pecten.
