A secret I've been keeping and ID confirmation...

Hi I have this chalice, I got it a few months ago...

It was in a order I made from a VERY high end online retailer.
Name with held but basically all they sell is high end LE/Tyree corals.

I made a small acan buy and this guy was in my box
There was a very long delay in shipping and when I called the guy said there would be something special in the box...

There must have been a mistake bc if this is a BGM it's worth $1000+

After looking at their site I think it's a BGM or Miami Hurricane.

On the web site the BGM was $200+ per eye and $50+ per eye for Miami hurricane.

This is 2"+ completely encrusted a 2" disk. It was about 80% when I got it.


From what I saw online the BGM has pink eyes and the Miami has orange. Also the BGM has a lighter green/yellow on the tips of the flesh.

Mine is pink and has the yellowish bumps.

There are about 30+ eye all around.

Sorry I'm horrible at taking pics
This in with no actinic and with flash.
It's SUPER green w/bright pink eyes under actinics...

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.
