Napoleon's sword
Here it is: not strictly ethnographic for our French colleagues, but very exotic for us, Michiganders

According to the news it was sold by a few members from the Napoleon familiy. But it has been bought also by a member of the family
 Funny, the sword remains in the family, the money remains in the family. And auctionhouse Osenat gets about 25% OVER 6.4 Million USD  By the way, If I had that kind of cash, I would probably collect Napoleontic swords too
