20  Calliostoma zizyphinum

Orange peach body of juveniles lacks dark pigment marks.
Most bands on whorls are smooth with very fine transverse striae, but
1: apical protoconch unsculptured and unpigmented, and
2: bands on some other adapical whorls are cut into beads so expect small young to be predominantly beaded.
