good afternoon, below Solingen and 1710
with respect

Then the inscription must refer to Tsar Peter the Great. That sword must be desirable to Russian collectors. Swedish swords from the Great Nordic War command very high market prices.

I didn't think I had to clarify that it referenced Peter Romanov when I deciphered the inscription, but thank you.
The person who posted the photo says it's in a Belorussian museum. Which one?
He had posted several fake relic swords here previously. Are they also in a Belorussian museum?

There's no sarcasm. You posted 3 or 4 relic swords, which are in my opinion, not from the periods they are supposed to represent. This blade is obviously authentic. In peripheral museums that don't have arms and armor curators there are all kinds of things on display, with all kinds of wild attributions.
The blade you posted is narrow, suited more for an officer's sword than a munitions grade weapon. Any of those brass hilts would work. Good luck!

Ok , your opinion is clear, thanks for defining the blade

Hello. This is outside of my usual scope of collecting but the sun reminds me of one I'm holding in to.

good afternoon, the sun of course is found on different blades in different versions and in combination with other symbols, which can also be drawn in different ways.
on the blade at the beginning of the theme, the sun and on the ricasso, do I see two stylized knights facing each other, between them a table, a bridge or a basilica? (drawing of what is left) on top of this at a later time the number VII.
if this image can be read differently, how?

[Elmereya]

I think that the blades of swords from museums that have shown in this topic come from the 17th century and had a ricasso-like blade at the beginning of the post and this sword with a basket hilt, and just converted at the beginning of the 18th century to be installed in a more fashionable hilt, (on the photo shows the remains of ricasso)
