**Vintage Hotel del Coronado "Crown Coronet Room" 11" Service Plate / Charger**
Up for sale is a rare piece of historic California hotel memorabilia! This heavy, vintage service plate comes from the legendary Hotel del Coronado on Coronado Island in San Diego. It features the beautifully embossed custom crown crest from the historic Coronet Room—originally constructed in 1888 as the resort's very first dining hall.
This custom commemorative piece was manufactured for the hotel by Minalloy N.Y.C. (a premium commercial food service division of Minner’s & Co. Inc.) during the 1970s. While it is crafted from a high-durability cast aluminum alloy designed to beautifully mimic the deep, non-reflective patina of antique pewter, it is completely lead-free and structurally solid.
**Item Details:**
- **Front text:** "Crown Coronet Room" underneath a stylized heart-shaped crown emblem
- **Back Stamps/Hallmarks:** Stamped with the Minalloy NYC logo emblem, "MINALLOY N.Y.C.", and model mold number "90194"
- **Diameter:** 11 inches
- **Weight:** Heavy weight at 1 lb 10.6 oz (approx. 1.666 lbs)
- **Condition:** Good vintage pre-owned condition with a beautiful satin patina. Shows minor surface wear, light scratches, and character marks consistent with age and high-end restaurant service use. No deep gouges, cracks, or warping. Please review all photos for exact condition details.
A perfect addition for collectors of vintage restaurant ware, architectural hotel history, San Diego memorabillia, or premium American metalware!
