  • (01) The FIRST flat-top can of Coca-Cola. It was a, 12oz. in USA and 10oz. in Canada, can introduced in 1955/1959. Because of the red and white diamond pattern, today's collectors have dubbed the can the "Diamond Can".
    Coca-Cola was originally made available in cans for the military in 1955.
  • (02) This is the second flat-top can of Coca Cola introduced some year after. The can has a bottle in the middle of the diamond.
  • (03) This is the third flat-top can of Coca Cola introduced at the end of '60. The new design has not a diamond, but a multi-diamonds look. This is the last diamond design produced. Because of the small red and white diamonds, today's collectors have dubbed the can "Harlequin Can".

  • (04) 1983 GRAND OPENING COCA COLA CAN RITCHFIELD UTAH.
  • (05) This particular can was a test cans that were only given out to Coke executives in order to see whether they were going to go ahead with the idea of canning Coca Cola in plastic cans. They later produced 4 plastic cans. This Clear can was not available during their 2 month testmarket. It is says "Canners Name and address Appear in this place"
  • (06) 1985: In 1985-86' Coca-Cola test marketed these recyclable cans. They included Coke (New Coke), Coca-Cola Classic, Diet Coke and Sprite in the 12 oz. size. The cans had several problems including the inability to support the weight of other cases placed on top of them, warping, cost, etc. Plans for these unusual cans were halted and they never went into regular production.

  • (07) Side A: "Christy & Dave - 26 September 1981". This can was produced in a small amount in 1981 for the wedding of Christy and Dave. Dave was at that time employed at the Coca Cola Company in Denver CO. and his co-workers had this can made up for him and his soon to be wife as a gift on the wedding party. This can has NEVER been for sale in any supermarket. It was only available to guests at the wedding party.
  • (08) Side B: "May you have a long Happy life together" - "Power CocaCola Production Employer" I think only 3 or 4 coke cans collectors have this rare can.
  • (09) 1980: The North Avenue Towers, Atlanta Georgia Jan1980 Commemorative Can.

  • (16)  NEW! - In April 1985, Coca Cola interduced NEW COKE! It was a marketing disaster. The can has the NEW silver label at the top of the can, this label was used for a 6 month period.
  • (16) Coke II - Short Story: In the 1985, Coke made "New Coke" to replace their original formula. Well after many complaints, Coke returned with Coke Classic (minus the Surgar replaced with cheaper Corn Syrup), and the "New Coke" was renamed to Coke II. Everyone started buying the Coke Classic, and as time went on, less and less places carry Coke II.
  • (17)(ENG) This is the infamous 1996 US Contour Can. It was tested in 3 US Cities in 96 but then pulled due to problems with it fitting into vending machines.
    (ITA) Questa è una lattina che l'america ha prodotto come prototipo in 3 città per far assomigliare la lattina alla bottiglia, infatti la lattina da 355ml ha l'alluminio sagomato come la famosa e classica bottiglietta. Poi si sono accorti che a causa della strana forma avevano problemi nei macchinari di produzione e anche nell'inserire le lattine dei distributori automatici. Quindi hanno interrotto subito la produzione.
  • (18) This is the PROTOTYPE of the can above. A rare never been filled Coca Cola can from the original coke "contour can project". This can was not marketed with this graphic, instead coke mass produced a can with a full length pictute of a bottle on the side. There are 2 variants: "always" logo colorer in BLUE and in GREEN.

  • (19) 1992: The first strange Prototype of can with 32 sides. Perhaps a first idea about the contour can. It is my understanding that they were made to reflect more light an be more visible on the shelf + they took a bit less aluminum to produce thus cost less.
  • (20) 1994: As above.
  • (21) You look a Coca Cola can given only to Boeing Employees to commemorate the last 737-400 made out of 1988 planes. The can is from December 9, 1999. The can reads "737-300/-400/-500 Commemorating the Success of 1,988 Delivered Airplanes".

  • (22) This Coke can was produced in 1997 and was distributed to the EMPLOYEES of the Atlanta Coca-Cola Bottling Company.
  • (23) This is a 250ml (8,4oz) coca cola can. The USA Coca Cola Company is trying to get into a new market, the interesting market which is now (2002/03) dominated by Red Bull and other higher priced energy drinks. The Coca Cola logo is tastefully ghosted in red on the red background. Strange design! There are two different versions of this can, one with bottle logo design, and the other with the wave logo design.
  • (24) Second Coca-Cola Classic (8,4oz) slim can. Canned by the Coca-Cola Company, Atlanta Georgia. Have never run into this type, maybe standard in some market somewhere some place, if so let me know. There is a mistery: below the nutrition facts is printed "Series 2, No.5".

  • (27) During Passover, people who follow the Ashkenazi Jewish tradition are forbidden from consuming products containing certain grains, including corn.
    Therefore, the Coca-Cola Bottling Company produces a limited amount of Coca-Cola Classic sweetened with sugar, which is sold in grocery stores in areas with larger Jewish populations.
    You can identify Kosher Coca-Cola by looking for the seal of the Chicago Rabbinical Council on the can: K .

  • (39) USA 2019 STRANGER THINGS (season 3):
    New Coke was only around for 79 days in 1985.
    Chances are it won’t last nearly as long in 2019 – but for much different reasons. That’s right, the ill-fated brand considered by many to be one of the biggest-ever marketing mishaps is making a brief comeback this summer for a (very) limited promotional run through a first-of-its-kind partnership
    between Coca-Cola and Netflix's Stranger Things.Beyond appearing prominently on screen throughout Stranger Things Season 3, New Coke will be available in the “real world” beginning Thursday, May 23, at 5 p.m. ET,
    when Coca-Cola will release a limited number of 12-oz. cans of New Coke – yes, the same recipe from 1985 – as part of a bundle when shoppers buy at least two limited-edition Stranger Things Coca-Cola or Coke Zero Sugar 8-oz. glass bottles at CokeStore.com/1985.
    ---
    La Coca-Cola ha prodotto meno di 500.000 lattine di New Coke e ha realizzato lattine e bottiglie in vetro a tema Stranger Things,
    con tanto di logo dello show ed etichetta sottosopra. Chi acquista le bottiglie (anche nella versione Coke Zero Sugar)
    riceve in omaggio la New Coke. E questo è il primo modo per ottenerla/provarla. Un altro modo consiste nell’individuare
    uno dei distributori automatici a tema Stranger Things che faranno la loro apparizione durante l’estate, ma ancora non sappiamo
    se soltanto negli Stati Uniti o anche in Italia. Infine, la sospirata lattina sarà vostra (gratis) anche se acquisterete
    un biglietto al World of Coca Cola di Atlanta.
