Cesare,

No comments at all on this one. It is not my field at all. I searched in some books to find marks, but unfortunately i cann't assist you.

If i look at the pictures it seems to me the marks are in a remarkable good condition. Too good in my opinion for a sword with that age.

I hope with this two cents opinion from me the more knowledgeable members will jump in.

Is the tip really broken? If so, some good close ups of the break could give some more information. Or is the tip not broken but is this an executioner sword?
