Assuming it is a Crassispira, which I couldn't say for certain, the shell is so smoothed by erosion that the original sculpture is virtually gone.  Based on the ground color and the light subsutural band, Crassispira discors would be a possibility, though it is a little large for that species.  Otherwise perhaps the similar Crassispira rustica.

It is definetly the right family ins´t?

Thank you!
