Please Identify This Cypraea

Yes, it is ocellata. How the heck did it get to Hawaii??

Can anyone identify this Cypraea for me? I received it as a free gift at a souvenir shop in Hawaii. It measures 26 mm in length. I have provided four views. Thanks for your help.

Hi,

It looks like a C. ocellata for me.
