This is a Babylonia, either Babylonia spirata (Spiraled Babylon Whelk) or Babylonia canaliculata (Channeled Babylon Whelk). Can't be sure which one it is from the end view. One of the other pics is too out of focus, and the third pic won't download. In either case, it is probably from India, and the value in prime condition would be about $2.00 to $3.00.
