"Here is a little information on the Couroc company. I was given as a gift a tray made by this company with the Monterey Cyprus tree in the early nineties by my sister. Still a useful serving tray that we use when throwing a party.

"It is similar to Bakelite as a material. A screenshot of ETSY shows that they made many different designs and pieces and now sell used for about $50 with and without designs with coins."

"We sold Couroc products in our retail store. As I remember they were popular in the 1970s-1980s? They offered standard designs that were sold at wholesale trade shows and through their catalog. Serving pieces such as trays and bowls. A rectangular tray, about 12 x 18, was their signature product and based on my experience accounted for probably 75% or more of their sales. They were very accommodating in that they welcomed custom designs. The tray pictured last week is a custom design. You could send them some coins with a rough sketch and they would create a tray. As I remember the tray pictured retailed for about $25-$30,"

"My wife wanted send my inheritance to Good Will. My recollection is that my parents bought this in the mid 1960's. I admired it since the late 1960's due to my coin problem developing during this time. They didn't treat it very carefully as I recall so it may have been inexpensive. I send both obverse and reverse as would be appropriate for a coin related object. 45x32 cm, grading as a toned Vf. The company name is raised in the reverse. It has to be worth more than paper fragments of a comic."

Thanks, everyone. -Editor
