Coconut

Coconuts were a type of hard-shelled fruit that grew on coconut palms.

Habitats
Coconuts typically grew in tropical regions such as Maztica, Mad Monkey Island, as well as the island chains Jazayir al-Sartan, Nada al-Hazan, and the Steaming Isles. Occasionally they grew in desert regions, such as the Desert of Desolation.

Prices
Aurora's Whole Realms Catalogue was known to sell dried and fresh coconuts for 50 and 10 gp respectively. In many of the bazaars throughout Zakhara, one could barter between 3 and 6 sp for a dozen coconuts.

Usage
Beyond the interior of a coconut being used as food, such as for coconut milk, coconut soup, and copra cake (dried coconut meat), their shells' thick layers of fibers (known as "qinbar" in Midani ) had a variety of uses.
