Kindly identify the shell

There are several species of these small spotted moon snails (family Naticidae), but this is probably an immature Natica (Naticarius) onca.  Four rows of squarish spots are typical. Sometimes the spots are fairly large, other times quite small, sometimes dark brown, other times light brown to tan.
