Clauberg
Model 1850 Civil War Era Sword w/Scabbard
Lot # 74 (Sale Order: 76 of 143)
Marked W Clauberg Solingen with knight symbol on one side. Both
sides of blade still have design-work visible. Left side has visible flag -
crossed musket and spear and appears to be marked US with draperies - filigree
and stars. Right side has flag - drapes with eagle center under E Pluribus
Unum. Blade has great patina with some rust in spots. Guard has some
discoloring - possible scorch mark. Handle has wear. See pictures. Hard to
photograph blade design due to glare. Scabbard well traveled but with
remarkably little denting. Blade measures 32 inches long. Overall length just
under 38 inches. Again - from family with ancestors who were known to
participate in the Civil War. Great piece of history.
