WKC Catalog Question- Saber - 05/21/2010 11:38 PM
Does anyone have a period catalog which can identify this particular dovehead pattern?
Although it resembles a Nr 1058 in many ways, it is not. The P-guard assembly is different..specifically the obverse and reverse langet patterns, the quillion block and the P-guard embellishments.
My scans of WKC catalogs don't have this particulat pattern listed. If you should either know the saber number or have access to a period sales catalog with the saber listed, I would greatly apprecaite if you could pass on Nr reference. A post on another forum resparked my search for this sabers pattern number which I've never been able to ascertain.
Thank you,
Tom
