Very nice! I'd love to have one. Where did you get it?

What's on the back, the fishtail? Bottle and circle?

Back has the bottle and Round Coke sign. I picked it up locally off a friend. Did some wheeling and dealing for it.

Ive got less than $500 in it, Its not mint but nice. The guy I got it from bought it out of a barn. His left elbow and left foot have paint missing and a small amount of rust. He was leaned up against a wall on his side in the dirt. What I thought was neat is the shield is reflective as with the circle around the Coke logo on the back. I will get some more pics when I get him cleaned up.

Joey,
Congrats on a great sign,, that is one of my favorites in my collection as well, I purchased a large collection of signs about 10 years ago to get a Near mint one of those signs, as well as a few others.. I have the Fishtail Version and mine is a strong 9 out of 10.. Love them.
congrats!
