Description

Caught by hookah divers 40m at Nocnocan Island. This is an exceptional valentia in terms of maturity, size, colour and quality. Just maybe a minor heal over scratch mark on the dorsum, otherwise in very nice quality. Normally valentia are lightweight cowries compare to the size but you can actually feel the weight on this specimen. Best specimen I got so far.
