Description
10 – 25 meter’s deep. For the connoisseurs of the cone collection. Most conus enthusiast would already recognize that the marmoreus, bandanus and vidua are separate species with similar looking patterns at a glance. However, the Conus vidua is the smallest among the 3, averaging 50~60mm and the subspecies from Cuyo Island (cuyoensis) is even smaller averaging 40~50mm. Therefore, this specimen is a giant among the small. A specimen for the cone collector. Good thickened lip of old cones. Erosions on the spire ofcause for old specimens. Really nice for such a gerontic specimen. Experienced cone collection will immediately recognize it as an aged grandfather cone!
