Hello All,
I've been doing more digging in my early 1900's dump. I've found 5-6 of these broken cokes, but this is my first whole one. Any thoughts on it? Common or rare? I'm not a CocaCola collector...maybe some of you know more about it than I do? (It says COCA-COLA BoTTLING CO MT VERNON OHIO)
Thanks for your input.

Madman Mike, Mt Vernon is in central Ohio. Those milk bottles, if they say Mt Vernon College or Mt Vernon Academy, are pretty rare!

It is a 'flavor' bottle. If the bottle has Coca-Cola in script writing it held Coca-Cola. The block letter bottles (like the one pictured) held a local flavor drink from that bottler. Anything from Soda Water, root beer, orange, lemon, and many other flavors were bottled by Coca-Cola. I think the one you have is hard to find. It pays to stay persistent and keep digging!
