What is the best way to tell how old a bottle of Coca-Cola brass opener is this?

My husband and I recently moved in a mobile home from 1966 .. on the back of a small island, we found a wall-mounted (seems old) Coca Cola Classic Brass Bottle Opener who said drinking above the symbol for Coca-Cola. How do I know exactly how old he is and how it may be useful? Yes it looks like that @ AD, but many older I think and brass .. some letters like this over the drink Coca Cola brought in back in the metal and it does not seem to have never had any paint or anything Whether on it. All details you can give me about this wonderful Americana would be wonderful and Ty:)

It looks like what this repro? (So maybe I can find the date was made). http://cgi.ebay.com.au/COCA-COLA-Bottle-Opener-POLISHED-Solid-brass-K25-COKE_W0QQitemZ360210276835QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Architectural_Garden_Antiques?hash=item53de34a1e3 They were made by Starr X and they started producing in 1925. There are many, many of them around so they are not worth much. You can always buy openers vintage never used and still in the box for under $ 50.00. Here's one that seems to be bronze, but in fact is rusty (I think). They were usually always silver (melt I think). http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Coca-Cola-Cast-Iron-Bottle-Opener_W0QQitemZ140384098841QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item20af8b5a19 I saw a reproduction that was made of brass. Sounds like a good one you have there. Prob with the openers is that they have made so many years. Still I have not found a single brass for sale outside of reproduction. It may be a rare piece. I know they did because they are breeding. This is a nice (and not the style you have though). Http: / / cgi.ebay.com / ws / eBayISAPI.dll?
