Hello All. I found this Coke bottle in the hole with a piece of aluminum can...glad I dug the hole.

I have found coins at this site back to 1909 and many WC's in the 19-teens so I am thinking it might be of the same vintage. See lots of near misses for it on the net but most are 6.5-OZ'ers.

Let me know if you can pin the date down and I am wondering if there is any value here.

Thanks for the view, GL and MC. C9

Strait side Coke bottle, ca. 1900 - 1915, I don't know what that specific one is worth. Keep digging that area, there should be more good stuff.

there were a bunch of bottling companies throughout Florida during the early part of the century, and yours happens to have Been from Sanford. If this were on eBay and you had a couple Sanford area bidders who are interested in in their local history in connection to this bottle, you could get a premium for it....depends on who wants it the most. I see similar bottles going for 40 to 80 dollars. If I was a Sanford resident I would want this one for my collection.
