    coke bottle question

    while metal detecting today I found several bottles of coca cola with Newport News, VA on them as well as a few with Alexanderia VA on them. Are these worth picking up? I dont know if there are collectors out there trying to get some from each state or anything like that. Thanks! Curt

    Pluto Devil

    Found a Pluto Devil bottle today and I cant seem to find this size or design of the devil on Ebay. very similar but the other devils are larger than this one. I'd say the bottle is 10 oz or so. I saw during a search that this was a laxative water bottle? is that correct?
