The Mysterious Sea Shell: Bidding starts at One Penny

[Cappy Z.]

Sea Shell, Sea Shell,
Sing me a song, O Please!
A song of ships, and sailor men,
And parrots, and tropical trees,

Of islands lost in the Spanish Main
Which no man ever may find again,
Of fishes and corals under the waves...
(Poem by Amy Lowell)

Here is a Sea Shell with a Hidden Treasure within....
A flawless 23 cwt Gemstone....

The dilemma is once you win the Sea Shell and it is yours...How do you get to the stunning Gemstone without cracking the Beautiful Shell?

I am not an artist, but if you look closely it appears like two doves embracing.

Just in case you don't believe in Treasure....

I know it is early...but I would have thought a 'woman' TNer with a heart and mind for Romance (etc) would have chimed in by now. Apparently they too are only motivated by pizza and a good football game.
So here it goes....

It's not for me. I know someone who could really use something like that to help take their mind off their troubles.
And I wanted to make it a gift to them.
