Vintage Coca Cola 10 Year Service Award Diamond 10K Gold Cufflinks 17 grams

Description

COCA COLA 10 year Service Award Cuff Link in 10K gold
PLEASE READ:
We picked up a nice collection of miscellaneous collectibles and these were in there.  I'm not entirely sure of the significance or the collectability, but we've been advised by some Coke collectors that there are very desirable.  I'm not sure what year it came out, but I'm told it would have to be after 1970 since that was the time they started using this particular logo?
So, apparently, these would have been handed out to Coca-Cola executives as a "thank you" award for 10 years of service (thus the diamond in the corner).  Reportedly, they were not given to line employees, and only the higher-up execs got them (which makes sense).  I've seen some similar items posted as "12K filled"...but these are clearly stamped with the 10k gold designation.  The local jeweler indicated that the cufflinks themselves are solid 10k gold, while the stems are likely 12k filled.  The overall weight was 17 and I was told that the 10k gold weight would likely be between 14-15 grams, though that could not be clearly established (since the posts are not removeable).
