Hi Nathaniel,

Unfortunately, the medals, letter, and signed photograph (of the king) were all rather expensive... The photograph (signed and with a note from the king) was about as expensive as the sword, and the medals (of which I know so little) were priced out of reach. There were other items that had belonged to the admiral I wanted to acquire (and did), so I unfortunately had to pass on these.

I'll take better pictures of the entire set of panels over the next few days, but in the meantime here's another that I've attached as slightly larger image... The scabbard is covered in images of men working. Upon closer review, the panels on the hilt have fauna in addition to the foliate scrollwork.

Regards,

Chris
