    Cypraeidae Pseudozonaria Robertsi - "Robert's Cowry"
    Auction
    Name:
    Cypraeidae Pseudozonaria Robertsi
    Author:  Hildago, 1906
    Common Name:  Robert's Cowry
    Sizes:  25.89 mm / 25.44 mm
    Locality:  Panama
    Origin:  Traded with J. Rodgers (Guam).  Collected live.
    This is part of our late father's large collection of seashells he obtained while stationed on Okinawa, Japan in 1974-1978.  He was an avid scuba diver and seashell collector.  His interests in shells grew from more than the Indo-Pacific species when he engaged in trading his shells with some of the prominent collectors around the world.
    Would make a nice addition to any collection.  Our shells have been thoughtfully taken care of for the last 50 years.  These shells have a natural luster and are in excellent condition
