French Sword
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			Hello. This is out of my usual scope, but i quite like it. I bought it as a French Court Sword. I'm hoping for help with dating other than my "old" estimate and.  
There are identical markings on both sides:  
 
An inscription, three Fleur De Lis (sp?) and what looks like a sun. (Maybe Louis XIV? just a guess??) 
 
Any comments would be welcome. 
 
Cheers
