Thanks for your offer, Felix...
It must be a one-of-a-kind shell, I think for in 47 years shellcollecting this was the only one I saw...
I have more very special tigris. I will try to show photographs of them soon...
I wanted to visit your stand in Hoboken, but my wife became ill during the shellshow and we returned before
noon....
Hopefully better luck next time! _________________ I am always interested in buying or exchanging Cowries, especially when they are very variable. |

In a few months time I expect a new seamail-shipment from East-Africa (Zanzibar & Tanzania) containing several oustanding specimens of Cypraea tigris L. _________________ I am always interested in buying or exchanging Cowries, especially when they are very variable. |
