Thought I would share this one......Pakistan errors are common but capped dies on any country are scarce.

Fantastic. How do you store such an item? You can't slab it or put it in an album, it's far too three-dimensional for that. It really looks like a beer bottle cap. Totally outstanding.

It's interesting that you say Pakistan errors are common, I noticed the same thing on ebay, Pakistan error coins are easier to find than most other countries (with the exception of India and Mexico, which are ultra-common). I wonder why that is.

Very nice!

Die Caps are RARE, and, as such, my favorite error.

My best is the English florin shown at https://goccf.com/t/116015&SearchTerms=die+cap


Great going!

A few years ago I purchased on ebay a British error coin that was described as uniface broadstrike for $50. At some point I showed it on a different coin forum and someone there said it was actually a die cap. I think he's right, although it never occurred to me before he mentioned it.
