No 1 is a British Drummers Sword Mk 1 1856 - 1895. Queen Victoria's cypher on the hilt.
No 2 ?
No 3 French 'coupe chou,' Infantry or Foot Artillery, not sure which model.
No 4 British Constabulary /Prison Service Sword 1890-ish.

Robert Guy, Thanks for your comments.
No1. I agree.
No2. I believe this to be a 1810 Patt Russian Imperial Naval Artillery Hanger issued to the lower ranks.
No3. Both the one stamped Jean and the one stamped Talabot I believe to be 1831 French Infantry Briquette.
No4. I agree.
Miguel

U.S. contract 1818 Starr infantry/artillery nco sword.

I am not sure how we should define hanger but I have many swords with blades less than thirty inches and were ofen carried in a frog type scabbard.

Cheers

U.S. militia swords. The shorter ones on our left from the 1840s. Two have spadroon type blades. The two with the narrower reeding to the grips are from Horstmann and the rest Ames.

Cheers
