CUFFLINKS Thread! Best, Oldest, Most Unique, or just found!

Post your... Complete cufflink or just a single side/ individual cufflink button.

1) Found with a Rev War Officer button, the cufflinks were no doubt his.

2) Solid silver, "B" represents the surname from the site. (Beers)

3) Tallyho - looking at this one again I'm pretty sure I can clean it better.

4) Sailing Ships

5) Very early hot air balloon.

6) For years I've wondered about these 3 glass ones with the back to back letter C. All were from different sites, both with French and British finds. Just a few weeks ago looking up a French coin I see that Besancon, France used the same exact mark as a mint mark on their coins so that might finally be my answer.

7) A soldier marked "British Volunteer."

8.) Ornate - Gold & silver plate.

What’s it say in the back of those Don? Tudor rose on front? Interesting with the mark on the back

Both the front and back make me think Spanish. Cool link!

Here are a few of mine. My favorite is the one made from an actual 1762 half real coin.

Here is my contribution to the cufflink thread.

Wow Steve, what an impressive collection-and that GW...

 

[DownNDirty]

Here's one that I dug at a site dating back to the mid-1700s. Based on the style I'm guessing it's a little later than 18th century but I'm not sure. Any ideas?

Took a couple of matching birth year Mercs from my finds collection and put them in silver cufflink bezels I bought online and then gave them to my step dad as a gift. He's a fancy guy and wears them whenever he gets the chance! Also did a birth year Merc pendant for my mom. Great inexpensive gift idea!

[scruggs]

I've got to look mine up!

 

[scruggs]

Might as well at mine to the lot
...and if anyone can educate me as to the age of some of these ( though I think most are early 20th or late 19th)

Don't know the age but they look nice!
