Thank you all.
I think the greennish efect comes from the bizare reaction of the digital camera coulor definition, maybe because the pictures were not taken with
natural light. The only green i actually see, is some verdigris in the seam soldering. I also appreciated the scabbard interior, as its two parts were loose, and i had to refix them; to me, it looks and bends like silver sheet, rather than white brass or alpaca.
I will take it to a local jewelry shop friend, for appreciation, as this is a point i wish to know for sure.
Needless to say i am already deeply pleased with the findings on the arabic owners name and probable hebrew maker's marks.
Naturally I will be happier if further coments come in.
Thanks again
