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. :thumbsup:

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.

TallyHo must have been a pretty common cufflink...I see that IP, Don and Patriot each have one! Weird.

Yes very common, and there's many buttons too.
 

I don't have any cuff links to post yet, but there is still a week left before the end of the year!

What a great post!
 

great post IP :icon_thumleft: great finds and so many varietys

I didn't hit the 1700's yet i've found quite a few though :icon_sunny:

My oldest is a dove over an urn both are symbols of mourning early to mid 1800's
I think CRUSADER has 2 of them posted already ?

Very cool, but think it's an urn not goblet, at least the ones that represent mourning. A dove was a sign of peace so it is always possible one could be over a goblet.

If you're only going to find one engraved silver is a good choice! :thumbsup:
