Old collection found
Hi Everyone,
I recently uncovered an old shell collection from when I was a kid.  They were glued to a wooden knick knack display.  Most were falling off or were loose and the display was falling apart also.  I soaked a few in bleach to remove the glue (wood or elmers I think).  Hopefully I didn't damage them - though they seem fine.
I'd like to keep some of my favorites and put them in a new display.  The rest I have no space for.  I have no idea if any are desirable to a collector but I took a few pics to show what I have.  I didn't post in the ID forum since there are so many and i'd just like to know if any are worth looking into. 
Anyway....here are the pics.  The shells were all collected 35+ yrs ago when my family was stationed in Okinawa.
Thanks!
