A North Carolina woman who sees an image of Mary and Jesus on a sea shell thinks the find may be God's way of giving her some money.

As of Tuesday evening, no one had matched Kathy Snow's opening bid of $25,000 on eBay, although she told WCNC-TV in Charlotte that she has received an offer of $20,000.
Snow said she found the shell during a visit to Wrightsville Beach, N.C., last year.
"I just glanced down and saw a shell that was unique, picked it up and saw the image," she said.
Snow said her son saw the same thing.
A number of items supposedly bearing Jesus's likeness have already been auctioned on eBay, including a grilled cheese sandwich that went for $28,000. A pretzel supposedly in the shape of Mary and Jesus was sold for $10,000.
"Maybe it's a financial gift," Snow said. "I don't know,"
