Here are some pics of some more previously undocumented cans. These are published as part of a regular article in the NPCC Can-O-Gram. New contributions would be greatly appreciated!
Following are some previously undocumented "national brand" cans:
Pepsi half quart-This is easily one of, if not the most desired Pepsi cans ever! This spectacular looking half quart was thought to be an urban legend until now.

Nehi Orange Soda-You’ll need to look closely at this one. This version of N80-3 has a gray background, instead of white.

Nehi Orange Drink-This version of N89-3 is brown instead of the traditional orange.

Nehi Quinine Water-This is a newly discovered N80-3 version of the Quinine Water.

Nehi Imitation Black Cherry Soda-This is a metallic version of the not so common Black Cherry N80-3.
[attachment=19]Nehi BC.jpg[/attachment]
Nehi Root Beer-This is a new generation of the Nehi “Easy Open Top, with the contents at the bottom. I would say it’s likely that there are other flavors of this label.

RC Cola-This is a maroon colored version of R60-3.

Chero Orange-This represents a new flavor of this very tough can. C490-0.

Sun-Rise Strawberry-This is a new flavor in another very tough series of cans. S1480-1.

Yukon Club Golden Ginger Ale-This is the Golden variation with three lines of text. Y60-3.

Shurfine Ginger Flavor-This shows us that even some of the more common cans have yet to be discovered flavors. S520-15.

Speedee Lemon Lime-Lemon Lime represents another new flavor in this very elusive set of cans. S1060-1.
[attachment=8]Speedee LL.jpg[/attachment]
Triple X Root Beer-This flat top comes out of left field as I would have never expected this brand to have been made pre-zip code.
[attachment=5]Triple XXX.JPG[/attachment]
Our Value Black Cherry-Another new flavor of a very tough set. O340-3.
[attachment=4]Our Value BC.JPG[/attachment]
Our Value Lemon Lime-A second new flavor of this set. O340-3.
[attachment=3]Our Value LL.JPG[/attachment]
Can-A-Pop Lemon Lime-This may also look familiar as it is another sheet from Jim Wicker’s website that has just been rolled. Pretty sharp!
[attachment=6]CanAPop Lemon Lime.JPG[/attachment]
Shasta Imitation Grape Punch-This new variation has the block letters and the large “Hasta”.
[attachment=2]Shasta Grape Punch.JPG[/attachment]
Gayla Black Cherry-This is a new flavor of G80-11, with the Topco emblem at the bottom.

Cherefresh Cherry Juice-Technically not a soda can, but an unbelievably graphic can with a 1935 copyright date.

Re: Some More Previously Undocumented Cans (Long & In Progress)
Brent, I'm guessing the NEHI orange is a discolored underwater found can. You can still see the remnants of the mud left behind on the rims. I've found many red budweisers in a dredge pile from boat slip/dock. All the red on these buds had turned maroon. I've seen the reds turn maroon on many other water cans & yellows turn a olive drab & other colors change to other colors, ect, ect. People that have found lots of underwater cans could probably back me up & vouch for me on this. I'd guess the same might of happened to RC Cola but did not see the obvious mud. LEON.
P.S. Heres a example of a red can turned maroon. Found this Red Fox in Utica dump, not even under water. Found 3 of them & all 3 had the red turn 2 maroon. These sat on my back porch for past 2 years & the maroon has faded back to red but on this one you can still see some maroon on back. Might have to put on shelf, dont think I got a Chicago version? Most these cans were run over by bulldozer in this dump. click to supersize

FAVORITE SAYING: WHY DUMP LOCALLY & FIND PROGRESS O/I's WHEN I CAN DRIVE A THOUSAND MILES AND FIND NOTHING.
NOT SO FAVORITE SAYING: SOME CRAZY RICH CLOWN OUTBID ME
ANOTHER SAYING: LIGHTS ARE ON BUT NOBODY'S HOME?
