Thanks for the help gentlemen.

It's not an original.
There is no question.

As my original post says. It is fully or mostly copper, and was cast with the hilt parts combined.
Also, it has no patina/oxidisation and the 'antenna' don't conform to known styles.
If you want to see good examples of reproductions covering the main types, then have a look here.

Also, show the rats some mercy for christs sake. They are just trying to earn a living too
