Just at the local 7-11 and by chance alone...

    I do not drink Coke - or any soft drink - is this a promotional thing? People look for their names? Cheers, RickO

    They started it about a year ago I think...and yes, people look for their names. I have seen many names of people I know and have taken a cell phone pic to text it to them before.

    Henry Chapman obtained 10 proof 1921 Morgan dollars. They were known as Chapman Morgans.
    There are also the Farran Zerbe proofs.

    I hope this helps.

    That's freaky! How could you not get both. I would have lost it and thought I was on some kind of numismatic candid camera if Zerbe was next to them too.

    The more you VAM..

    Believe it or not they sell the name bottles on ebay for money here are some stats...

    "Across all #ShareaCoke bottles, just around $32,000 in eBay sales have occurred since the start of the campaign," he says, "with individual bottle sales valued at an average of between $7 and $8 but going as high as $80—significantly higher than retail price."

    "Jimmy" bottles have sold for an average of $55 each
