🥇 BANNER My First Gold- Tudor Rose Gold Cufflinks

[mbcuce]

I was too shocked to do a gold dance when I pulled these out of the hole. With a shallow, 8 on my Nox I almost didn't dig what turned out to be one of my best finds ever: gold, intact, cufflinks with the Tudor rose. A little research I think they are mid 1700's, not military but someone important. The bend on one was NOT my shovel but was existing.

Wow what an amazing find, congrats!

Wow, incredible. Congrats.

Just noticed what looks like a marking on the edge that is bent. Could that be a maker's mark? It would be cool if you could trace them back to a goldsmith.

Beautiful BANNER worthy find. Congrats

 

[mbcuce]

Thanks Crusader. I was hoping you would check this one out. I haven't found much like this online. Do you know much about them? Was there any military significance? They seem pretty rare.

 

[Aureus]

Should be banner for sure. I've seen silver ones found over here, but to find gold ones is pretty exceptional.

 

[ModernMiner]

Those GOLD cufflinks look even better up there on the BANNER train. 👍
Amazing find.
Congrats,

Congrats on this fantastic find and the BANNER designation. Well deserved!

 

[aShardOfHistory]

Anyone hunting colonial sites will eventually get some silver tudor rose linked buttons but to find a complete pair in gold is amazing. Congrats

I hunt sites with quiet a few having Elizabeth 1st and hammered coins and I'm yet to find one :P

(I'm in UK BTW)
