Coca-Cola Regular (non-commemorative)
SPECIAL NOTE:  COLOR- Coca-Cola cans offer a distinctive difference among cans of the same general age and label design based on "Color" variations. resulting in added generations. What is referred to as a "Dull Red" and a "Metallic Red" background color of the can shows up well when displayed side by side in a collection.

 

COCA-COLA CONE TOP STYLE   V/M# 1
 The CONE TOP CANS, the "Rarest of the Rare", the "Most Sought After" and "Worth a King's Ransom"!!! To any Coca-Cola collector, the 16 or the 32 ounce Coca-Cola cone top can would be proudly displayed in the most prominent position in their collection.  Unfortunately, the word from the Atlanta Coca-Cola Archives is that the can most likely existed only as factory samples and were never marketed.

COCA-COLA SPIRAL STYLE (DYNAMIC CONTOUR)
The third major label change on Coca-Cola cans, the "Dynamic Contour" or the "Spiral Style" was introduced in 1970, and consisted of a white twisting ribbon over a red background. The ribbon design was developed to echo the shape of the early "Hobble Skirt" bottle.

Several generation changes have evolved since 1970 when the first Spiral can was marketed, offering a wide range of collectable cans from this style. A general description of these generation changes follows.
PANELS- The first generation cans had two main vertical panels and are called "Double Panel" cans. In 1971, the design changed to three vertical panels called "Triple Panel" cans.

PRICE STRIPES- Beginning in 1974, the "Price Stripe" made its debut in the market-place. The purpose of the Price Stripe is to speed up grocery check-outs by allowing a computerized reading device to scan the combination of lines and numbers on the label to determine the identity and price of the item.

The Price Stripe on Coca-Cola cans where different on cans of the same relative age will cause a generation change and produce another collectable can for the shelf.

A key shown below defines the structure of the price stripe. These codes may appear in the following descriptions.

PRICE STRIPE KEY: N= Numbers on the Price Stripe      S= The Stripes of the Price Stripe

PRICE STRIPE COLORS: B- Black       R= Red      S= Silver

EXAMPLE: (N=R, S=S) The numbers are red and the stripes silver.

STAY TABS WITH INSTRUCTIONS- An interesting short run variation in cans occurred in 1976 with the development of the "Stay Tab". Unlike earlier "Pull Tabs" to open cans, the new opener did not pull off the can, but stayed attached. In its experimental stage it was felt that the public needed education as to how to use the new tab, and instructions were placed on the back panel of the cans.

Note: All cans to follow are Tab Top unless otherwise noted

COCA-COLA 8 OUNCE CAN   V/M# 23
The Coca-Cola Bottler of Los Angeles first introduced the 8 ounce can in their market area in 1976. It was called the "California Compact". The small cans are still being sold in California and in the deep South, but haven't captured a very large share of the overall can market. They are an attractive and unusual addition to any collection.

This can is the only known domestic 10 ounce Coke can, and it will make a prize addition to any collection.

COCA-COLA 1/2 LITER "SNAP TOP" Resealable Can   V/M#26
The "Snap Top" re-sealable can was a good idea whose time had not arrived. The idea was to be able to drink a portion of the 1/2 liter can and reseal against carbonation loss. The can worked in practice but did not survive short run market tests.
