    i have nassarious snails and t hey stay very small but if yours is as big as you say you might have a conch species they have the tubes also that stick out of the sand. maby check out conch species to id it. some conchs have smoot shells (univalve shells there called) without the hard ridges and there shells are poplar for sale or trinkets in shops. with the pattern to it might be a Phalium areola
