I just picked up a couple coke ss bottles. They are center script with "trademark registered" underneath the script and no town on the slug. Paid $30 each. Talked the guy down from $45. They are a little dirty and a couple scratches but no dings or cracks and in pretty good shape I think.
Looking at them, one bottle, the tail of the first C is flat on the bottom and doesn't curve in like the other which does it more diagnally. Anyone know if the one was just a screw-up or did they change the logo to that for a bit? Also was $30 a good price for them?
Also, these were the same era as the decal bottles?
Thanks

It all depends on the city in which it was bottled. Some cities have low values while others are rare as hens teeth and command big money. I have owned dozens of the SS cokes over the years most fall in the $25-50 range. But I have seen on more than one occasion a bottle bring $2,000+

Cool. Thanks. These are the only ones I have found so far on my vacation in Colorado. Keep looking in these ghost towns.

Harder to find in Colorado. You will find most in the south, larger cities, and the east coast.

What are the cities on the bottles? I have a book that tells the rarity on the old bottles.

They don't have a city name on them. Just coca cola script, trademark registered under that and bottle not sold towards the bottom.
