GARDEN & SON - ROBt. S. GARDEN

Hi Jim, my "guess" that the numbers are just a control number for Garden.
I have a infantry sword with brass scabbard marked Garden with number 405 on the blade spine. Blade is etched with the officers initials RH but I've not found the name. It is a patent hilt and has Garden name etch with 29 Picedilly and Garden stamped on the blade spine.
The VR in the guard appears to be shot out. Possibly an interesting story behind it?
