Welcome to the website
My name is Mateusz Wiśniewski and I am pleased to welcome you to my website. I have been collecting bottle caps since March 2005, and this website gives me the chance to present my collection to you as well.
Trading
Trading is a very important source of new caps for my collection. If you are interested in trading, I invite you to take a look at my duplicates.
Thank you
The collection would not be so large without the commitment of my family and friends, whom I would like to thank very much here.
Thank you for remembering my hobby on your trips, both the small ones (even to the local shop) and the bigger ones. The collection keeps growing and nothing suggests that this will change!

About me
I started my adventure with bottle caps in 2005 thanks to a friend who showed me his collection. Back then, being one of many, I put the caps in a box, not paying attention to any details. However, time passed, my friends stopped being interested in this hobby and I remained the only collector of caps in the area. It was then that I told my family about my hobby, thanks to which the collection began to grow with rarer designs.
In October 2006, I accidentally entered the website of a collector and noticed a link to the Polish Forum of Cap Collectors. Thanks to it, I began to exchange online with many collectors, both from Polish and abroad.
Shortly after registering on the Forum, i.e. on December 1, 2006, I created my first website (what did it look like? Welcome to the archive). In the following years, I improved my website so that, in addition to presenting the collection, it was as helpful as possible in cataloguing the collections. In 2010, together with Tomasz Stefaniak, we created the Catalog of Polish Caps without Signatures based on Paweł Kamieniecki's catalog. Since 2014, I have also had the pleasure of providing technical care for the main catalog, i.e. the Catalog of Polish Bottle Caps with Signatures.
