Persististrombus coronatus is an extinct species of fossil true conch from the Late Miocene to Pliocene (11.6-2.58 million years ago).

The large-sized light brown shells are heavy, very thick at the right edge, and show long protuberances.

In the Miocene, the species is a West Atlantic element, which later invaded the Mediterranean region.

It disappears from the Mediterranean Sea completely with the onset of the Late Pliocene cooling.

During the early Pliocene warming, the species is recorded from Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Syria, Libya, Tunisia, Morocco and the Canary Islands.
