I always liked those spotted salimanders. i used to find them under laogs and even cleaning out drain holes aroug the house I grew up in. Put a statue of the empire state building or something near them and take a picture. The look real scary if you get the shot right. Almost like a B movie.

Hey Shag, Those are Soda water bottles. If they were cokes the Coca Cola would be by its self  and all other info would be listen after that. They are very different from the norm. I have never seen any like them. Most sell around 10 to 15 bucks but some are rare so do your research.

Up here in Ontario I am used to seeing salimanders, but not ones like that! The ones I normaly see have orange spots on their back, but it also has an orange and black under it. Those guys are way too fast to ever hold them like that normally. They run for it as soon as you dig them out. Nice coke by the way, even though it is a very plain style.

Nice find,but I agree with Warren.The bottles that are without Coca-Cola in script held other beverages other than Coke,mainly flavored sodas rather than cola.I have seen that bottle around but never noticed prices.The bottles you posted are probably a little newer than the script straight side cokes.I posted a pic of a Newark straight side with the script embossing.Good luck in your digging,Doug

I thought it said Newark Coca cola. With Coca Cola on  one side and Newark O. on the other it most probably is a Coke bottle. There are a few block litter Cokes out there. I have a few. The bottle mould was probably cut to fill the gap between the SS Cokes and the hobble skirts. Most are. Good call Shag.

By the way, I could use a Newark ss Coke if either of you have a spare.

Hey Shagnasty. Nice to find lizzards like this. How deep was it? Digging for bottles I found once a toad at about 1 meter deep into the ground.

This salamanders are common in romanian mountains. They are slow and you can catch them easily because their skin is so poisonous no predator with will for living would touch them. Even for humans they are dangerous if your hands have open wounds or if you choose, out of boredrom, lets say, to eat them.

The wifey flew up out of a hole one time because of a white frog with realy zoned out eyes. Never seen one before or since and it taught me a valuable lesson; Don't stand to near the hole if a wirey is in it....... She ran right over my ass.
