Im not familiar with Arabic numerals but I seem to see the following: 2 6[?] 9 [with something else?] 3[?] and a 5. Seems to be a random set of numbers? But maybe linked to the first word on the right?
Any idea on what that might say? |

Very beautiful example! Congratulations!
The blade may benefit from some cleaning. I have no idea what the cartouche inscription says but it appears to intact. Last edited by mariusgmioc; 16th December 2020 at 08:22 AM. |

Not too sure. In tirris book he does not say where it is from. Just says its a persian blade with a indian hilt. Dated 18th century

Tirris does not say in his book. Only states that its 18th century, persian blade with indian hilt. Maybe its mughal but in terms of location, I am not too sure -
