Description: | One disc from a pair of octagonal silver cufflinks. Only one disc loop survives. The disc is octagonal and is decorated with an octangonal border of concave incised lines and a central flower (rose?). The reverse of the disc is slightly hollow and has an integral central loop. There are no visible hallmarks, but this design of cufflink was popular at the end of the 17th century into the early 18th century. Since the object cannot be securely dated to pre 1700, it does not constitute Treasure under the 1996 Act, though it has been reported to the British Museum Department of Portable Antqiuities and Treasure as potential Treasure.
