Dug this cool shape Cola in SC last week. Christo - Cola. It looks like a 10 Pin or onion shape soda. Has a sun on other side. Sad part it took a hit on the sweet spot. Anyone dug one of these??

Also made in Gastonia, and other cities in North, South Carolina and Virginia like that. In good shape they sell betwen $40 # $70. Piedmont Bottle Club will have the 2012 bottle show near you in Salisbury on April 21. You can find others there.

Other products included: Root Beer, Cherry, and Sarsaparilla. They produced some great items including ceramic dispensers, metal signs and trays, enameled fountain syrup bottle, mirrors, buttons, toys, etc.

I own a Hinton, WV. I didn't realize that they bottled the brand down in Winston Salem, NC.

Durham, NC also had one.  Most I see in great shape and look clean go from $100-$150.  Even seen some higher than that.

Thanks for all the info fellows, it look like it has a well desired shape to it. Hopefully it is just time I will dig a mint one up.
