Default my favorite rapier

Iam more into the early medieval swords as some might know but I will probably never be separated from this rapier, I think I appreciate the roughness of those 16th century swords.
blade 104cm AOL 122cm
blade stamped with a face mark and in the fuller CAVAIO MARINO.

I found a similar in the museum of Zagreb described as South German 1580, and I saw a statue in Madrid with a similar sword hilt.
So Iam not sure if it is German or Spanish.

Best,
