Cypraea mappa virdis montrouzieri #2 71.4mm, Dautzenberg 1903, GEM BEAUTY from New Caledonia. A rare, endemic form of the mappa cowrie found on a reef during a night dive in 15 feet of water, Michel Bay, New Caledonia, 2021. I imagine that for the average collector, finding one of these rare beauties must be like finding a giant tiger cowrie in Hawaii, something that you never forget. And a spectacular giant one? Wow! It is one of my greatest ambitions to get to go shell collecting someday in New Caledonia, it sounds like heaven!. And this gorgeous rose-colored shell is more beautiful than the photos---a rare, super-gorgeous, glossy, GEM beauty with a slight orange-tinted mouth that will look terrific 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.
