This is a nice and original Civil War staff & field officer’s sword. This is the classic style that was worn by high ranking officers of the Civil War. These swords are easily distinguished from the foot officer’s swords because of the large “US” lettering in the basket of the hand guard. This one has a very thick attic patina color to the brass parts. The blade is full-length at 30-3/8ths inches. The blade still retains a fine amount of the ornate etching on each side of the blade. The front side of the blade has the eagle with the “E PLURIBUS UNUM” motto along with military and floral designs. At the base of the blade it has the retailer mark of the famous Philadelphia firm of William H. Horstmann & Sons. They were one of the premiere retailers during the Civil War. On the back side it has the large “US” in the center that is flanked by floral and patriotic designs. On the handle of the sword it has the original grip intact. This is the high quality version that has the sharkskin grip instead of leather. The skin has a darker color from ago as you can see. It also has the entire wire wrap intact. This is the style that has the spring style wire wrapped around the handle. The sword is accompanied by the original scabbard. This is the scabbard style that is made of brass and metal. The brass has a beautiful color all over. You can tell that this one was used but not abused during service. He wore the sword so much thata large portion of the bottom brass drag is worn completely off. This is a nice looking original Civil War staff & field officer sword for your relic room walls.
