A complete silver cuff link of George I period. Both circular elements have the monarchs bust right stamped into them, and the link piece joining them is still in situ. As well as the bust, the letters G and R are either side of the bust. The figure wears a long curled wig and has garments draped around the neck and shoulders. There is no hallmark, which may suggest that the silver is not pure. George I reigned from 1714-27, the imagery on the cufflinks most closely matches that on his older coinage, and it is likely therefore that the cuff links are not over 300 years old an…
