Cokes are not real comon but not real rare either. They average from $35 to $50. The older aqua ones are rarer than the clear ones. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 3

I got mine cheap cause I'm a hagler. Hey Kevin, Got to be worth at least $30. Wouldn't sell one for less but could be worth alot more. I will do some research and let you know. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to kastoo) Post #: 7

G.S.C. stands for George S. Cobb. It being from your area it's probably still worth a good bit more to you or others. I try to collect bottles from the Columbus, Lagrange area so what I think about it may not be the same to others. Never the less good find.                                  Willy (in reply to capsoda) Post #: 8

RE: question about ss cokes - 11/19/2006 9:55:50 AM    muddyfingers   Posts: 145 Joined: 9/23/2006 From: Tallahassee,Fl and Fort Wayne,In just depends Status: offline Warren I dont know much about Cobb. Only that he embossed his initials molded onto his bottles to distinguish it from the imitators. His factory produced straight sides starting around 1903 there are only 3 known colors aqua, clear, and lt. blue. straight sides with shoulder script are worth a little more than the base script, but that only depends on what your willing to pay for something you can't live without. I'm still working on the history on several bottling companies so as I learn more I'll try to keep those who are interested up to date on my finds. Hope this helps a little.                                 Willy (in reply to bottlenutboy) Post #: 14

I still have to pick up the Cobb coke and a few others from that area. Hey Spencer, amber Cokes are a whole new ball game.
