Close, but the guard quillion doesn't have the square opening on the quillion or the pointy bit on the lower part of the bolster. and has languettes only on one side. And has a clipped point.

Found these shots of a Prussian 1780-1800 hussar one in a number of references. here's a couple.

P.s. - I also have an Italian 1885 mounted artillery officers sword, posted here a few years back. Of course, completely different.
