Near Mint 60/70s Sealed Coke

[Johnny Rocky]

I found this coke on a walk through a state park just laying on the ground. It was completely empty when I found it so I thought that it was opened, but when I cleaned it I found that the seal was still intact. It cleaned up very well and weirdly there is no residue in the bottle.

That's interesting.

Being a screw-cap, I would bet that the metal ring that seals to the cap wasn't actually crimped on tightly enough, and may have come off with the cap when it was unscrewed. Then it was likely placed back on once empty. That being said, it does appear to be quite clean and dry on the inside...

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Still pretty cool though. If only it was a more rare bottle.

Pretty neat to find with the cap, although I'd have to agree that the seal was broken. I have several of these with the tabs intact and caps placed back on.
