Exceptional example of a rare pattern, Peterson #113. Gilt hilt with boat shaped guard. The guard edge and knuckle bow with beaded motif. Olive shaped pommel secured with a nut. Silver sheet simulating wire wrap to the grip. 30 ½” broad d.e. blade decorated with naturalistic foliage, potted foliate display, Eagle with motto ribbon, arms display with crossed cannons, draped vignette and Indian headdress with star band. Exceptional condition throughout. The decoration uniform and complete. Hilt with near all heavy gold overlay, the left edge of the guard and the pommel top only weak/worn from being worn and resting the hand on the pommel. Just the second example we have ever offered and the best we have seen.
