Sorry for potential disappointment. This is very suspicious item that is likely a recent copy. Are there any authentic examples of such daggers, or is is made-up fantasy type? There are some Balkan/Albanian design elements, such as pistol grip shaped handle, but overall it is a weird mixup of crude quality.

Not disappointed. I thought it was a uncorrect and recent item because of the double eagles with and without a crown.
Thanks corrado26 |

Hi
You can find a lot like this one. The date is commemorative, it's not the date of the sword or the blade... I was thinking that they were Greek... Kubur |
