At the moment, a can of Coca-Cola is for sale for $325,000 on eBay. The reason is that this tin has a manufacturing error that makes it collectible.
Specifically, the can is vacuum sealed with no soda inside and has not been opened. This bug is extremely rare, causing it to sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars, as reported by Mashed.
Other similar promotional items include Pepsi cans, which have a promotional design for Michael Jackson’s ‘Dangerous’ tour, which were made in 1993. Each sells for $2,500..
Although it may not seem like it, there are people who can spend hundreds and even thousands of dollars on collectible soda cans. Three vintage Pepsi soda cans, from the 1959s, are known to have sold for just under $6,000.
there is also another 2014 Brazil World Cup commemorative tin sold on eBay for $281,000.
Connoisseurs recommend saving soda cans that sit full with little to no liquid, as there is a chance they will sell for more in the future.
