Description: | Cast silver cufflinks. Two hollow, cast discs with a bevelled edge connected by a link. The link is an oval loop of silver wire 15mm long and 1mm wide. Each cufflink has loop in the centre of the base. The face of each cufflink has two hearts underneath and open crown. This device is believed to commemorate the wedding of Charles II to Catherine of Braganza in 1662. One of the cufflinks is intact, although slightly chipped around the edge. The other is a small fragment portraying the hearts and base of the crown. This has been reported as Treasure under the 1996 Treasure Act. 2009 T458.
