For sale is a Civil War era musician sword. C Roby manufactured this sword in 1863.
The grip and guard have a great deep mustard patina. The guard has inspector marked F.S.S.
The blade is marked C. ROBY / W.CHELMSFORD MASS in a circle on one side and U.S. / 1863 / F.S.S. on the other.
The blade is cut down at 12 1/4 inches. I have heard this was done at times during the Second World War !!!!!
