An error in the manufacture of the product can turn it into a coveted object for collectors. Some are willing to pay thousands of euros for objects that at first glance do not have it.
That’s what happens with some Coca-Cola cans. Some leave the factory empty because they are filled with pressure, but without liquid. A mistake that makes them a real rarity and gives them a unique value.
Empty Coca-Cola cans can be found on eBay for up to 2,000 euros. “Empty Coca Cola Zero can closed. Factory error. 2010”, can be read in one of the ads posted on a well-known bidding website.
Another oddity that could make the Coca-Cola can worth thousands of euros is on the label. Do you see any errors? Are there any misspelled words? This could also be a sign that you have a valuable can on your hands.
There are a few tricks. The most reliable ads would be those with pictures of empty Coke cans on scales where you can see the weight of the container. The idea is to demonstrate that they lack liquid.
Another way to give reliability to the is to publish images from various angles so that expert collectors, who know how to detect a fake, can check that it has not been drilled or drained. In conclusion, the next time you see an empty Coke can in your house, don’t throw it away. It is worth more than you can imagine.
