Thank you fernando.
I'm not a big expert on Spanish swords, is this a Royal Guard officer's saber? What else can you say about this saber? Thank you in advance.
Regards, Yuri.

Thanks, corrado26 for the information.

For myself, I would like to find out the identity of this saber. IMHO Judging by its size and weight (1.175 kg without scabbard), it belonged to a heavy cavalry officer.
What will be the opinions?
