1908 gift ???

[MonDak]

Maybe a graduation or a birthday gift?
It's a cufflink
On the face it says "just 17"
And on the spade it says "Nov 17, 08"

Found behind the school at this site

Looks like a patent date to me. I tried a search for the date on the Patent Office website but did not come up with anything. Definitely looks mass produced rather than a custom item. I think the front says JUST IT.
