Most of the Bahama conch fishermen sell their catch of pearls at Nassau. The value of conch pearls is as variable as their form, color, and size, and they are sold by the fishermen for a variety of prices which range quite high for large ones with exceptional form, color and luster. Information from Kunz's 1908 pearl book. Linne classified teh "great conch" as Strombus gigas in 1758. A number of large marine gastropods belonging to the family Strombidae and other families are still called conchs or conch shells, while Strombus gigas, although often also described as conch shell or conch, is more specifically referred to as teh "true conch", "queen conch", "poink conch", "giant conch" or "great conch".
