This is how I found this Coca Cola bottle and I believe that this is just from years of being in the sun. I would like to know what you guys think. Usually when I see nuked bottles they are much darker and I would rather not deceive anybody if I sell it. I have never nuked a bottle ever and would not even know where to begin on starting to nuke bottles. Plus I believe this is a pretty desirable VA coke bottle so I would not want to ruin it by fabricating color on it. If it is nuked it was done before I found it.

Nahhhh, that's about the right color though I have one a bit darker.

It's fairly common, and sells for $15.00 or so. Ya gotta remember, it's not really a 'Coke' bottle per se.

No it says Newport News VA. I was told by a Virginia Coca Cola collector that it is a pretty tough one to find.

Thanks CreekWalker I know what you mean. My buddy collects VA Coca Cola bottles and I saw one sold a few years back. Thanks for looking out for me.
