Folks, I need your help for a friend of mine in identifying this sword. It has no family ties to him, so there is none of that "it was my great gradpaw Hood's from the "confed-er-a-ci". I personally believe it to be a freemason sword since it has the cross in the crown, but I have a few doubts as it does have many charactoristics of a true civil war sword. To this I mean, a solid brass hilt, true shark skin wrap, and real gold wire wrap. Now I have a few MC Lilley swords that were in my family from the 1880's-19teens and thoes resemble nothing like this.
Anyway, enough of that, if you have information on the sword, I would greatl;y appreciate it if you could post it for all to see.
Thanks in advance.
