Not sure but it looks older than dinosaur dung.

I think your right....

Cuff link?

Cuff link?

Could be. It is small enough. Everything I have looked at is pointing me towards a post medevil period button. Any other thoughts?

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

Im not positive but it looks like a "drilled shank" I think that would place it late 1600's- 1700s but again Im not sure.

Here are some drilled shanks to compare. http://www.artifacts.org/Early Buttons.htm

I think timekiller would know. The Georgian Period is generally considered 1714-1811. How do we post the green check?

 

[dgrs2]

Great help. Thanks everyone!

No green check yet. It's definitely from an early cufflink but who is that on it?

Well that's my button, and I don't think it's him. possible George 111.

Is that a button you found SS? Has the exact same markings as mine.

The one in Timekillers link is, yours doesn't look the same, mine was Silver.

This button was found in central Pa. about 10 miles east of the Susquehanna River. If that helps out anymore on the identification.
