Hi Jim.
I was actually wondering if this pair were sold in Spain in the 1600s and came to Mexico to work.
Actually, I was keen to know if this style of sword was working in Mexico in the 1600s.
You seem to be au fait with this area and this period.
Of course, it could simply be a Californian collector bought them... then sold them.
Regardless... they are a prize possession.
