    Can someone tell me how old this bottle is? I have a chance to buy it.
    I believe it is a hutchinson bottle but it doesn't have the city the soda was bottled in, but does have The Coca Cola Company (with the copyright symbol letter C inside a circle) - is this an early coca cola bottle or a anniversary issue or other special bottling?
    I didn't think they did the copyright symbol in the early 1900's?
    Thanks

    Well I just won this in a auction on eBay for $210. I'm concerned because I just found there is a 1997 Hutchinson coca cola 1894 replica bottles for sale - but none show the bottom of the bottle.
    Can anyone tell me what I have in case I need to have paypal stop sale?
    Thanks

    I did a quick search for you and have some bottles for you to look at. Here is the original:

    According to this site:
    First Versions: Coca-Cola

    Here is a reproduction:

    Now I don't know anything about this. Hopefully an expert will be by.

    they agreed to cancel sale when I told them I was sure it was an accident & I wouldn't leave any feedback - good or bad - if they canceled the sale.

    Anything with the copyright symbol like that (circle with a "C") means it is fairly modern.

    Very lucky! That is not a very old bottle.
