Status: offline 		so i have this coke bottle i found in the beautiful dirt... looks just like any old coke bottle But..... for a pat date it says 12/25/1923.. all my other coke bottles just say pat.D-105529. I know this is no repo trust me i know... I found it about 1 ft in the dirt behind an old abandon farm house. are these worth anything??? now remember looks exactly like any old embossed coke bottle....

Status: offline 		O thanks for the link :) well it says Des moins ia, bottle has wear on the bottom probably from being re used ? other then that its pretty good shape, just a bit worn out heh probably from many many years in the minnesota weather. i will try to get a pic up but i do not know how to get my pics down to the 200 kb or w/e limit.
But thanks for the link and if you look it up that would be very great.

Towns/ Cities have them but not all. Hawaii has four towns represented. Do you have any bottle books from your area?

Status: offline 		the one bikegoon posted is one of the repros from the 80's you can tell by the embossed letter text and the embossed line that connects ites and states, the original would have larger text and no line on the basem you can take a pic and repost in the soda forum many coke collectors there
