A nice Turkish ottoman shamshir with silver scabbard and rhino hilt. This looks like an early war trophy from the revolution of 1821, since it has the symbol of the cross engraved (obviously latter that the manufacture date) on both sides of the guard, and in one side the date 1822. Also engraved the symbol of double headed eagle.
