I guess it could be an early 17TH C sword ?
Any comment on it would be welcome.

Beautiful sword, Jean-Luc. Others will know better but, i would agree with the early XVII century assessment for the guard. Later ones would have a more complex structure. Let's see if someone here recognizes the Kings head on the blade.
