<center>never under estimate a crown top bottle either
This is a Mohawk Pepsi-Cola bottle story
Mohawk for being in the Mohawk Valley and the rest you know.
I found a few of them in my bottle dump along with some good other ones as well.
Well being a crown top bottle I just thought is was cool because it was a local bottle for my collection
until I searched and saw some others were RARE.....
Well this got me really looking a bit more
I contacted some experts in the field and also asked a few on forums for help
this one person I contacted bought a 30oz Mohawk Pepsi-Cola bottle 1920 era for $1,475.00 then kept it a yr to resell it on Ebay
He did sell it on Ebay and this was what he got for it before all fees

The real sad part of finding bottles is when they are broken
I found 2 of the Mohawk Pepsi-Cola 30oz bottles in the dump broken
so a few grand wasted but I made out pretty well anyways diggin
