This is an intriguing anamoly and it would interesting to know more on the sword in Peru. You should get hold of the museum to discover the provenance and possible clues.

Thanks! Looking forward to what you find.
My curiosity about the Peru sword has been nagging at me for too long. Perhaps it’s time to simply reach out to the museum and see if I can get some traction.
