Got out for a couple of hours after Church this afternoon. I hit a Ravine behind a TOC house. It was used as a dump from the ealry 1900's into the 30's era. Best find was a nice Local Coca Cola Circle Arrow in aqua. The aqua version is a lot rarer than it's amber twin. This one looks like it will clean up nice. The two hobble skirts with it are just commoner Pat-D one was from a very small local town the other was from here.

You've got the Circle Arrow Coke market cornered down there. Nice find. Glad to see that you're out digging again. WTG!

Hee's yesterdays Coke I dug after I cleaned it this morning. It came out nice I think. I hope there are a few more hiding in that spot.

BOB: I have a amber MEMPHIS STRAIGHT SIDE WITH AN ARROW ON TWO SIDES,I am guessing it is a good deal more common then the STRAIGHT SIDE you dug. Is that right? JAMIE

Yes the regular Memphis with arrow on front and rear is common. There is a rarer version where the arrow goes up the side seam on both sides. bob
