This is an old cone top syrup can. I'm trying to find out when Coca Cola used these. The ingredients listed on the can is "A compound syrup; Prepared with caffeine extractives from Coca leaves (cocaine removed) and Cola nuts, and other flavoring material, colored with Carmel." The only syrup containers Iv'e seen were glass. Is this really a rare item? Thanks, Ray Cellers

Your can looks very much like one in Petretti's 12. Dates to the 1930's and if were in mint condition could be worth well over $300.
Thanks tommy1002, but what is Petretti's 12. drainray
It's a Coca-Cola collectible price guide, 12th edition. It was printed in 2008, so prices could be variable given our stellar economy.
