It has some sand inside it, and it works. It measures approx. between 5.5" to 6" tall. Is the one I have worth as much as the other related one on eBay that sold for $92? The lighter part says Japan on it, by the way. Is mine rare or very collectible? Thank you.
Here's the closest one I could find on eBay: www.ebay.com/itm/Antique-1960s-Coca-Cola-Soda-Pop-Harlequin-COKE-Diamond-Can-TABLE-LIGHTER-NICE-/391226693069

Yours looks like a newer (1970s) version. Coke stuff is everywhere, but there are also many collectors. $92.00 seems a bit high though.

Here is an interesting article looks like they started making the lighters around 1950. They don't have a pic so not sure what he first looked like.

Check the date for the Coke "logo" that's printed on the can.

Looked up others by same company and they were selling $15.99 !!

Somebody gave me a karma point. Woo hoo! Thanks, whoever you are!! :)
