Stuka f

forgot to show you this one.

Can't tell you much about it, except that it is marked Toledo and 1854.

97 cm long.

Just got some additional information. The city of Rouen happens to be the godparent of the ship "Jeanne D'Arc" (a school ship), that explains why the medal mentions here.

The guy's replied it is a life saving medal!

The coat of arms is from the city of Rouen.

Other medals of that kind can be seen at;

It was id on a other forum, as "probably" being a Dutch officer's M 1813 n°1 for light cavalry.

A other forum said Dutch all right, but about 1820.

No problem, my pleasure.

Hey Magnus, people can contact you by personal message when clicking your pseudo.

It just isn't a good idea to put your email address on a public forum.

I can ask on a French forum if you want...

Hey Peter,

thanks for your reply. It is indeed a sword that has the look of many others of his time. But there is always a small detail that doesn't match with the ones I can find on the net.

Thanks for the date the company started, I have been searching for it, but couldn't find it! 

Hello all,

would anyone know what sword this is please?

Got it wit a German sword out of the woodwork and when I bought it, thought it was German too. It had to go quickly  ;-)

Until I opened it at home...signed A Ronge Liége.

Very nice!

I have only this pic for time being;

Very nice for what I have seen, so far!

Here is how Belgium started the war.

Here is a veterinary  of the Garde Civique (sort of home guard/national guard). Very soon dismantled after the war, because the Germans didn't see them as regular army men, and didn't take them prisoner, they were shot on site when caught.

The color of uniform and helmet is dark green, the helmet misses his spike (actually it broke of, I still have it), the next helmet is black and shows how it should be.

Got a regular army lancer as well, but need to find his pic.

Hello,

 I would think Welsh for the last one's....

Thanks for sharing!

I sold my bilingual and got my self a uni lingual one, and will continue that theme;

Found the one on the top left, last week, the other 3 on the net after doing some research...

A new collection is started!

Super, thanks a lot.

Ok, thanks!

Any idea what it could be?

Could this be British, please?

don't know if this one as ever been in America, but I saw a similar one listed as Spanish American war souvenir....
