Cufflinks can add an elegant and stylish statement to a man's attire as well as injecting a bit of personality. Our goldtone rope bezel coin cuff links include genuine U.S. Wartime Silver Jefferson Nickels encircled by antique rope settings that will make your cuffs a great conversation starter at your social event. World War II prompted the rationing of many commodities. Nickel was highly valued for use in armor plating, and Congress ordered the removal of this metal from the five-cent piece, effective October 8, 1942. From that date, and lasting through the end of 1945, five-cent pieces bore the regular design but were minted from an alloy of copper, silver and manganese. Each coin is lavishly layered in pure 24k Gold. These coin cuff links have bullet back closures making them very easy to put on. Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
