Look for the gold '55 Chevy road sign! ~Trades and offers are always considered~ Very Rare Civil War Confederate CS Star Pommel Foot Artillery Short Sword with Original Scabbard, mfg. circa 1861-1864. This sword was purchased directly from a descendant of Union Civil War soldier George W. Martin of Company G, 10th Vermont Volunteer Infantry, who according to family tradition recovered the sword during a battle and brought it home as a souvenir. The sword remained with the family for 155 years. We will gladly provide a letter of provenance from JJT detailing as much information as we can offer. These artillery short swords are generally credited as being made in Wilmington, North Carolina and Macon, Georgia among other possible unrecorded Southern arsenals. The sword remains in wonderful untouched condition and measures 24 1/8" long overall featuring a 18 5/8" double edged gladiator style blade. The blade has a smooth silver/gray luster with no nicks or chips. The crudely cast brass handle features a star on both sides of the pommel and "CS" cast into both sides of the guard. The tang is properly peened over at the pommel and the brass has a lovely untouched brown patina. The original leather scabbard shows typical moderate/heavy wear and retains it's original stitching and brass mouth. The tip and belt stud are missing with minor leather loss at the end. This is an extraordinary real deal Confederate weapon which has never been available to the public until now.
