I just picked up what I believe to be a Br. 1821/96 heavy cavalry sword ; it looks to have an Edwardian Crown on it and it is made by Hamburger, Rogers and Co.. There is a 4 digit number on the spine; is this a model number or and issue number such as on Wilkinson swords which can be traced ? Are there any records on Hamburger , Rogers and Co. swords still around ?
