Nice find,but I agree with Warren.The bottles that are without Coca-Cola in script held other beverages other than Coke,mainly flavored sodas rather than cola.I have seen that bottle around but never noticed prices.The bottles you posted are probably a little newer than the script straight side cokes.I posted a pic of a Newark straight side with the script embossing.Good luck in your digging,Doug

I thought it said Newark Coca cola. With Coca Cola on one side and Newark O. on the other it most probably is a Coke bottle. There are a few block litter Cokes out there. I have a few. The bottle mould was probably cut to fill the gap between the SS Cokes and the hobble skirts. Most are. Good call Shag.

By the way, I could use a Newark ss Coke if either of you have a spare.[:)]

Hey Shagnasty. Nice to find lizzards like this. How deep was it? Digging for bottles I found once a toad at about 1 meter deep into the ground.

This salamanders are common in romanian mountains. They are slow and you can catch them easily because their skin is so poisonous no predator with will for living would touch them. Even for humans they are dangerous if your hands have open wounds or if you choose, out of boredrom, lets say, to eat them.

The wifey flew up out of a hole one time because of a white frog with realy zoned out eyes. Never seen one before or since and it taught me a valuable lesson; Don't stand to near the hole if a wirey is in it....... She ran right over my ass.[:)]
