Early in 2008 a 'mud
lark', Mr A. Richards, made a wonderful discovery on the banks of the
River Thames, London, a single cufflink. The cufflink, the only one
known to exist, would have been presented to one of the officers who
served with Admiral Adam Duncan
of Lundie as a way of celebrating his victory at the Battle of
Camperdown, 11 Oct. 1779, against the combined Dutch & French Fleets.
The Clan Duncan Society
has commissioned Roddy Young, Goldsmith & Silversmith, Inverness, to
re-create this unique find in a Numbered & Strictly Limited Edition
of 150, in either Sterling Silver (18 grams), 15K Gold (20 grams) or 18K
Gold (21 grams), each with a diameter of 13mm and hallmarked in
Edinburgh. Each set is individually numbered, handmade to order and
comes in a presentation box with a certificate of authentication. |
