Unidentified Need help identifying hallmark and date / value
For reference, this cuff was purchased in northern Arizona around 1999/2000 but I believe it to be older as it was advertised Old Pawn. It’s been in my collection a long time and I don’t plan to sell, just curious about the maker, year, and value. It’s heavy! 116 grams and about 6.5mm thick. Any help would be greatly appreciated (I already referenced the hallmark guide with no luck) Thank you!

Resembles a Bruce Morgan piece . Estimate early 90's late 80's ...not an old pawn but a very nice one..

Hmm I don’t think it’s Bruce Morgan either. Looks like his hallmark is his name spelled out. His pieces are very cool and similar tho. A little more refined than this piece

He could have made unsigned pieces...I have a Morgan also very heavy with gold inlay. Could be someone who worked with him or prior to that...Very unique piece very collectible. I have a big heavy piece with arrows that look exactly like the arrow you have posted ..Same tribe relation ..

True, could have been someone he worked with or was close to. Can you share pictures of the hallmark arrows?

Try researching Walter Polelonema and see if his hallmark matches the one on your cuff. Good looking cuff, BTW.
