I think this is a late 19th century sword that was rehilted in the early 20th century. Bolster looks older with signs of better craftmanship Most of the older ones I have seen were fitted via some type of solder. Below is a 1930 era one the belonged to a British soldier Red shirt rebellion. I have added a few different style hilts for comparison.
