Talking Gustavus Adolphus Sword

Hi,
Some interesting examples!
A famous sword with provenance that always interested me is the rapier of Gustavus Adolphus, the King of Sweden during the Thirty Years War, and brilliant general who died in the Battle of Lutzen in 1632. The gilded, German made sword was found on the battlefield amidst the carnage.
