The title pretty much tells it all. It's always nice to find cufflinks, especially ones still attached. There is a pattern on them but you can't make it out due to corrosion. I'm satisfied even though for me it's mostly about coins.

Nice finds! I got my first Colonial era cufflink (silver) last weekend. Nice to find under the coil.

Heck, you got what most people dream about finding...Colonial artifacts. :headbang: Those cufflinks are sweet! Too bad we didn't get at least one Colonial copper. :dontknow: This site was definitely circa 1780 though due to the relics we were excavating. It was pleasant to hunt though. The buttons were popping out and they were nice ones to boot. :headbang: :hello2: Next week we must hit a new one!

Chris, getting the cufflinks is special, they may come in bunches or you may go a long time before ever finding even half of one. Nice at least you all got some relics to dig.

Nice Relics CCZ!!! Found my first Colonial cufflink this year at the spring where CSA troops camped and Dman found one in February that had gold on it. This must be a cufflink year. WTG and HH, Quindy.

I would love to find a SET of cuff links! I dont even have one side. There may not be any coins in the mix today, but you are right on track for more copper :headbang:
