Interesting European Cavalry Sword.
An interesting and unusual mid-19th century cavalry sword. I’m not 100% sure the country of original as it has elements from a few European countries.
The hilt has a guard that is all Austrian, brass, quite fine with a curled quillon and these unusual shield shaped Langets. It has a leather covered grips with a fine brass back strap leading to a very heavy unusual brass pommel, similar in style to the Hungarian pattern.
It has a long slightly curved blade with a wide single fuller on each side and a spear point tip. It has no marks anywhere on this sword apart from a single small stamp on the back of the blade. This has a crown with a gothic letter under, see pictures.
It has a steel scabbard with no hanging rings but a fog button on one side.
The condition is very good showing no rust to the sword itself, the leather grip is just missing its twisted wire and the scabbard has a few shallow dents near the bottom.
With the brass and scabbard cleaned, it will be a good looking piece and a nice example of whatever it is. It measures 40.5 inches
