Absolutely a very rare and seldom found officers sword. This model was "trendy"  between 1830 and 1860. It was used mainly by high rank officers of the Cavalry but also by Home Guard officers. This particular example must have been made around 1845.
This is the first time we have found one. Beautiful example!!
