    Anyone into the Coca-Cola or Pepsi bottles? Another niche market but there is a following.

    The one to see, though probably worth a nickel or dime, are the 1984 Soccer/Football can, and the 1994 World Cup commemorative with the logo and flag.

    Obviously, if they still have the drink in the bottle and unopened, it's worth more.

    One of the interesting cases is the David Beckham Coke version with him in his England kit. Obviously, he has a personal endorsement with Pepsi and so interesting he ended up advertising for a rival. I don't know if there was any dispute on this but if this was an American athlete it would have raised a red flag.

    Also, one of the guys here (think it was Bill Reeves) scored on a Coke bottle from Korea--World Cup edition... a cool collectable and discussion piece, though one of the kids ended taking a drink from it at one of the tailgates.

    Pins are another niche market but that's for another thread.

    Discuss. Cheers!

    I'm interested in the Beckham bottle !

    Also do you have any Chilavert conmemoratives?
    Well he used to endorse for Pepsi until they didn't pay him and he had to sue and now he's with Coca-Cola.So anything Chilavert is what I'm mostly interested in getting.

    There are a lot on ebay. I'm not keen on the international ones because some of them would have to brought overseas, but when the Olympics and World Cup were here in the States, it was easy to get the bottles and save.

    The only problem is that I drink the stuff so the value immediately goes down.

    I would recommend looking on ebay, and again, it's a niche market. Good luck.

    Cheers!
