Australian Citizen Military Force 1897 Pattern Infantry Officers Sword

SOLD

Code: 11471



A scarce 1897 Pattern Infantry Officers sword, bearing issue markings to the Australian Citizen Military Force.

This example produced by the Wilkinson Sword Company, London, and outwardly a typically high quality example of thier work.

Broad arrow, inspection, and Australian government markings to the sword's spine. 

Matching "Q 94" markings to inner guard and scabbard. The "Q" presumably standing for Queensland?

The brown leather Sam Browne pattern field service scabbard impressed with Australian governement markings, crowned inspection marking, "C.M.F." and a date of "1.14" for January 1914.

A very good sword, fresh to the market, and completely untouched. It would benefit from some light cleaning to the guard and blade in order to improve its display potential. 

Strictly over 18's only. Photo ID will be required before this item can be dispatched.
