Although I do not collect European arms per se, I do recognize this piece and believe it to be a British band sword. You can see what looks like a "GR" on the hilt which would refer to King George. As far as dating, it could very well date to the early 19th century. If you found it in the ground perhaps it is a relic from the War of 1812?
