Dear Nancy,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. So that I may best assist you, can you please upload a few better images.
With kind regards,
Georg
Dear Nancy,
Thank you for the additional images and your patience.
The presented object appears to be a Model 1860 Light Cavalry Sword. It was made by Horstmann & Sons in Philadelphia in the 19th century probably during the Civil War period.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 400 to 600 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With kind regards,
Georg

Dear Nancy,
