They're not an official Mint product. Private companies create these from normal proof coins and market them as "keepsakes".

The bad news is that the plating means they're considered to be altered coins which destroyed any collector value they may have had.

IF the coins were special "prestige" proofs, you could at least recover the value of the underlying silver. But if they're standard clad composition, they've lost all extra value. The coins would have to be weighed to determine which type you have, because the plating covers up the edge which would show silver for a Prestige Proof and copper for a standard proof.

What is the value of a gold or gold plated set of cufflinks with gold or gold plated 1907 Indian Head cents?

The value of gold cufflinks would depend on the weight and purity of the gold used. Gold plated cufflinks would have a lower intrinsic value compared to solid gold. The Indian Head cents, if gold plated, would add a numismatic value depending on their condition and rarity. It is recommended to have a professional appraiser assess the items for an accurate valuation.
