Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Cap

 is a miscellaneous item in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Caps are found throughout the Mojave wasteland and are a collectible item. Some time after the Courier finds a special cap (one can be found in a house in Goodsprings, a man named Malcolm Holmes, a retired cap collector (though he has six star caps), will approach the player and warn that the caps are highly sought after by collectors who will kill for them. The caps are thought be very valuable, because according the legend they allow access to a secret treasure guarded by a man, since before the war. They are apparently still occasionally found by opening new bottles of Sunset Sarsaparilla, as the man guarding the treasure distributes them randomly.

Locations
There is one bottle cap located in Goodsprings in a building (labeled "Goodsprings Home") a few yards just southwest of a rotating (it's actually right next to the non-rotating windmill) windmill on one of the counters inside. (Possibly in the kitchen.)

Another is found in the "Nipton Road General Store" at Nipton Road Reststop. Upon entering one should head to the back left corner and on the same table as the cash register there ill be several regular bottle caps as well as a Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Cap

One can also be obtained in the Nevada Highway Patrol Station. In the cell on the floor, next to the dead prisoner.

9 can be found between Nipton and the Nipton Road Pit Shop. In between the two Tomas and Jacklyn are in a gunfight. If Tomas dies, you can talk to Jacklyn and confront her about the Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Caps, she will attack you. Kill her and loot her for 2 Star Bottle caps, then loot Tomas for 7 more. This is also possible if Tomas kills Jacklyn, you can loot Jacklyn and then talk to and kill Tomas for his 7 caps. Total outcome is 9 star caps either way.
