The Rome Ga. 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.

what i was really wondering about was the arched writing on it i assumed they were comon from rome because i have 3 or 4 of them from there i only have the one with the arched writing on it around my neck of the woods the rome's are everywhere in antique stores the clear one we are talking about now i got in a antiquestore in rome for about $25 im sure i got a good deal on it i was just trying to find out about how good a deal it was i always like to get a good steal on bottles

Hey spencer, Put up a pic of the variant you are talking about and I will let you know. 25 bucks is a real good deal on any ss Coke. 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.

kastoo, I may be blowing my own horn but that is a good bottle. 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.

heres another shot i dont know how well it is though  oh the bottle says on the front                                             " coca cola "                  and around the back on the heel it says in one line
   "bottling company"                         "this bottle never sold"
   "trademark registered"

30 bucks is what it's worth. They sometimes go higher on ebay

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

Thanks Willy, I would appreciate it. 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. Not too many of the sell for lass than 50 bucks.

well i know it looked nice and i liked it but i couldnt afford it i just dont know anything about how rare the arched script is thats what i wanted to know about really i dont really think it is common although i didnt think my wrights bottle was common either but they are so i dont know they dont seem to be common and apparently you guys dont know about it either so now i am stuck i guess it is rare if no one knows about it

The arched script is not as common as the straight script but I wouldn't call it rare.
