Can Anyone identify this ?
I bought this that was among some Old things. 1 thing was dated I believe it's 1814 on 1 side & 1916 on the other that piece is a cross.
I'd Really Appreciate any information on these pistols. Thank you

Looks like an old charm bracelet that fell apart.

That was also my first thought when I saw the picture. Trinkets you would see on a charm bracelet.

The double dated cross is a WWI German iron cross or a copy of one.

Yes, charms. The guns appear to be Colt's SAA. The cross is a cross pattée (AKA Templar Cross) that was later adopted by Prussia and Germany.

I would take that collection to the Antique Road Show.
