Dear Cindy, Thank you for your help and patience. The presented object appears to be a replica Confederate States of America sword. This piece was made in the 20th century. The markings on the blade, the workmanship, and the condition of the surface are the arguments for this dating. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 50 to 100 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
