VERY FINE & RARE COLLEGE HILL CONFEDERATE STAFF & FIELD OFFICER’S SWORD
02-23358
Rare and beautiful condition of unique staff sword with large “CSA” cast in relief on bottom of guard. There are only a handful of complete examples extant. This sword exhibits a 29.75″ pen-knife style blade, which is unique to this Nashville, TN manufacturer. Blade is patriotically etched with large “CSA” in 3″ panel with a Confederate flag on staff. The knucklebow enters the pommel near its base, and scabbard throat is angled and ring mount at base, both unique College Hill features. Leather grip is complete, still retaining much of its polish luster and its original tightly twisted brass wire.
UNATTACHED ACCESSORIES: letter of authenticity from the late sword authority Steve Hess written for Heritage Auctions 2006.
