bottle cap

Soda's metal lid

A bottle cap is the small metal or plastic cover that seals a bottle, typically crimped or screwed onto the opening.

Metal caps require a bottle opener; plastic caps usually twist off by hand.

In casual games, bottle caps serve as makeshift game pieces or collectibles: The kids played checkers with bottle caps.
