Shells ID/Specimen quality?
Thank you for taking the time to read my query.
Because only 5 photos of my 8 photos could be attached in my previous post , this post has the remaining 3 photos.

These pictures are of a frame filled with tiny seashells.

I had trouble identifying these tiny shells--any help would be appreciated:
In the second photo, the black & white shell is in the Neritidae family.
In the third photo, the black & white cone shell is Hebrew cone shell and in the bottom row, the light green shell is a cowry--very pretty!!

I also would appreciate it to know if the framed shell of are of significant value and if any are of specimen value. Does having them glued in frames make the shells less valuable? Paul Monfils was kind enough to tell me that the shells I posted earlier were not specimen quality so they were not worth anything to collectors.
I appreciate your time in helping me.
