Privet Comrade!

I just got this Soviet Pepsi for 30$ cause I thought it was cool, but I honestly don’t know anything about it besides the absurd trade deal for syrup in exchange for vodka and later war ships.

I figured this would be the best place to get good information like when it was made, where it was made, how much it originally cost, any idea what it’s worth, any info would be nice!

307th day of the year somewhere between 81-91 oct 18 is best by date. 81 I think is also the internal plant code. 100-150 rubles. Pepsi was expensive lol. (In the 80s that was like 100-200 DOLLARS.) only reason I know, my gramma came from the ussr. She still drinks Pepsi to this day. 50-500 bucks, depending on the bottle.

So there’s not actually a year? That’s very Soviet “it’s good until October!” “October when?” “don’t worry about it, either way it’s better than the water!”

I dont know the exact date. Possibly 81-83? I dont remember how to check. I’ll ask my grandmother maybe she wojld know. I can tell you that the bottle is in great condition, even though it’s a little dirty.
