Maybe the style of the letters helps in its identification.
It could just be my idea but, initilalizing numbers with ' º' and names with ' ª' doesn't seem to be either British or French; more like Spanish ?  . |
Don't know! i did not find any documentation on any spanish sword like this, a british person said to me that it was clearly a british artilery short sword from the napoleonic times, but in the other thread there is a clear picture saying it's french naval!
The letters may help in discovering the origin! it was said to be found in portugal so it would make sense to be british or french because of the peninsular war.
