cypraea checklist
I forgot to tell about the sinistral fakes. With 3 shells the artist builds up 1 sinistral with fake periostracum. Some time ago a dealer was cheated in this way and paid a fortune for the shell. In the Philippines they do this job for over than 30 years now. The local gonverment knows the deal, so there`s no way to get the money back.
