Gold find today.........I think

[crazydigger]

Posted these once today but for some reason my post went away. Anyway, I doug this cuff link today about 6" down. Had a VDI range of 0 to +8. Has initials on it BT and a small diamond in the center. I believe it's early 1900's or earlier . Found a few clads, a bullet and pendant (which may be gold) and a bunch of square nails.

There is a nearly identical cuff link pictured in the 1902 Sears catalogue. A pair sold for $6.00. That is a really cool find...Congratulations!

Looks like you found the Missing Link. Good Job. So much for my "off the Cuff" remarks. HH

Nice looking piece!
pre 1910 US gold wasn't usually marked,
Metal test kit is a must for the detectorist, find one on epay for under $15,

you can check your silver, plat & 5 karat types.
