Just repeating and confirming what others have already said...18th century hanger, possibly English, French or American, dyed green ivory was in vogue mid/late 18th c., your piece appears to be missing its cross-guard and pommel cap, but need better pics. And yes, it appears to be stuck in its scabbard. Not an uncommon conundrum, unfortunately. Most of these were hunting pieces, but they were also popular with infantry and naval officers.
