Step back in time with this fascinating piece of financial history! This authentic wooden Abbott Coin Packaging Tray is a must-have for any serious collector of vintage banking or office ephemera. Designed with precision, this functional tool features three distinct grooves, each expertly sized to accommodate various US coinage: the largest for half-dollars and dollars, the middle for nickels and quarters, and the smallest for pennies and dimes. It represents a unique snapshot of early 20th-century commerce, boasting the original patent date of February 15, 1916. Its warm wood finish and specialized design make it a stunning display piece that tells the story of how currency was handled before the digital age.
