Default A cufflink sort of day...

Took a long lunch today at the park with my detector. Found a pretty good concentration of clad, but also a high density of cufflinks! Actually found a matched set within about a foot of each other, and another only a couple feet farther away. Also a nice little charm. It's heavy, but appears to maybe be sliver-plated copper and no idea on the stones. All-in-all, a GOOD Friday!

Smile Unique finds!

I hadn't thought about it, but I've never found a cufflink. Wow, a matched set and more in one hunt. That must be a unique site. I haven't worn cufflinks in more than 40 years - are they still used?
Neat stones in the charm. Really nice looking.
Happy hunting

Congrats on the cufflinks! The fact you found a matching set is very cool. The charm is very nice the blue stone is very attractive, Beale.
