How much is an soda can worth?

An empty soda can is generally worth a few cents as scrap metal, the exact amount depending on the market price of aluminum. For example, in the United States, an empty soda can might fetch around 2-3 cents. However, the value of an unopened soda can is considerably higher, as it contains the beverage itself and may be worth anywhere from 50 cents to several dollars depending on the brand and size of the can.
