1800's British Royal Navy Junior Officer's Sword, sold

In aged condition, an 1800's British Royal Navy Junior Officer's Sword.

The black fishskin grip, shorter blade and rounded pommel show this to be a RN lieutenant's sword from around 1800.

The 26 7/8 inch blade is in sound condition with traces of etching but with inert rust pitting particularly towards the point. Blade firm in the hilt. The hilt / guard in good condition. The fishskin grip good but with a patch missing one side. The grip wire in good order.

From the time Britannia really did rule the waves. A snip at just £? (too late, now sold). Please quote item reference number V96 (1113). Further / full sized pictures available upon request.
