| Nice Gold Cufflink Excavated in 1862 Federal Camp in Cross Timber Hollows, Missouri. |
|
|
NEW !
If you're looking for an Unusual Soldier's Personal Item,
This Excavated Gold Cufflink may be it ! It is in superb
dug condition, with no damage and retaining a nice gold luster.
I started to say "solid gold" but I really don't know the actual
content. I Do know it must be significant, as the link came out
of the ground looking as you see it. For the most part only gold
and silver survive being buried over a hundred years, and still
retain their original finish. This little beauty has a very intricate
design around the edge of 3-4 wavy lines, and centered a
flower with flourishes. The reverse is a plain simple stud.
Link measures about 1/2 inch by 3/8ths of an inch, and is
shown with an eagle coat button for comparison. Button
not included. A Nice Gold Personal Item, likely lost by
an officer. Recovered Cross Timber Hollows, Missouri.
