Toledo 1840

Hello from Siberia
I want to buy this, but I know nothing in this theme. Tell me please, is it original item or not? And could a such item be used in some wars and battle

Well it purports to be a Spanish made briquet type sabre, as used by the Mexican Artillery in the 1840's, but the poor brass hilt casting, blade inscription, lack of a ricasso, makes me doubt it's Spanish made. It's possibly a Mexican made copy, perhaps late 19th Century, or it could be a complete fake. Not a sword to spend much money on
i would think.
