Dear Gordon,

Can't help, but great item!

G'day Gordon,

Great sword. Any chance of some pics of the rest of the engraving? Is that a garter star I see?

Cheers,
Bryce

Jon MB,

This is as close as I've got, the last part matches.

Do have other images however they are all to big to upload. No not a garter star, it's the number 3 at the middle of a star-burst. The sword belonged to an officer of the 3rd Bombay Light Cavalry.
