Default Swiss saber with inscription "ANNA" (?)
Hello,

I recently purchased this saber. My guess is, that it was made in Switzerland around 1700. Is that correct in your eyes or is another region of production and/or time more plausible?
Also there is an inscription on both sides of the blade I read as "ANNA". What is the meanig of that? Is it a makers mark?

Total length: 925 mm
Blade length: 780 mm

Regards
Robin
