gold cufflink( update)

dirt diva · Sep 10, 2009

One of the members here suggested that I should have a jeweler look at cufflink,and
test the gold :thumbsup:

So I took it by this morning.It tested 24 kt.

and he agrees with
the date of early 1700's to mid 1700's.This was my first gold find.
Thanks for all the help.

AMAZING!!

SIMPLY AMAZING!!! :headbang:

Since you rarely ever see Colonial gold cufflinks, let alone fully attached, this find deserves to be up on the banner. I have nominated it!

I would have to agree, too. Gold cufflinks from the 1700's? BANNER VOTE IN :hello2:

Well I would have voted for banner if you had the other set of cufflinks :laughing9:

Just kidding. That is an amazing find I have voted banner as well. To think that is your first gold find too and it being 24kt colonial era is really impressive :notworthy:

How much does it weight?

I didn't have them weight it.Didn't think about it.But it is very light weight.The actual design part
is almost paper thin.They suggested not to clean the rest of dirt out of pattern lines
because it might break.Thanks everyone for your nice replies.
