Georgian period cufflink??

[Gregg3131]

Found this in a colonial field. I have heard it could be a button, cufflink or part of watch chain?? Any experts?

Looks like it's a colonial cufflink to me. I've seen similar examples being identified as colonial cufflinks but never dug one myself.

Paste stone button or linked button but definitely 18th century

That's a great find Gregg!
It definitely looks to be late 18thc or early 19thc in date.

If it were mine, I'd tumble it for a few hours to make it more presentable.
