Very Good. Blade displays some scattered spots of brown patina forming. Nickel finish to pommel has worn down with some dusted oxidation and patina forming. Right folding guard shows a split between the legs of the rampant lion with exposed brass. Some thinning to the brass at the edges. Some faint scratches to the hilt. Scabbard shows some surface roughness and uneven spots suggesting it was most likely repainted at some point.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
