Confederate State Navy Cutlass CSN Ames Model 1860 Unmarked Civil War Naval Officer. Seems to have illegible by me, possible worn inscriptions around the guard. This sword is not sharpened and seems to be in excellent condition with minor wear to the scabbard but could use an oiling. I'm not brave enough to dismantle the hilt to look for more specific maker marks.
I've read many confederate swords were not marked or were also foreign made and marked on the tang. To guess would be replica, but has distinctive qualities on scabbard and handle I hadn't seen on similar replications.
