			This dagger came in today with a silvered blade after washing soil off of it I could see a pattern under the rough silvering the blade had, without even a documentation picture, it met some diluted phosphoric acid. The nielloing appears old and missing in some areas. The hilt and sheath have a varnish coating? 
		
		
		
			Any and all comments will be appreciated. Regards, Steve  |
