Old swords found at my grandmothers home after she passed and was my grandfather's. It's 3 thin, one different as it's wider and all on a wooden plaque base. No idea where he got it, what part of the world it's ordinated from and interested in learning story and selling for proper value.
2-3' +/-?

Dear Chris,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a set of French bayonets. There are 3 French M 1866 yatagan bayonets with brass handles and a French M1816 artillery fascine knife made after 1831 because of the ringed handle.
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation for an M1866 would be between 40 to 80 USD each.
A fair market estimation for the M1816would is between 150 to 300 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
