   
This is a very well marked 1865 Cavalry Saber by Mansfield &
Lamb of Rhode Island. It is an original Civil War era
cavalry saber in the scabbard. The 1860 pattern was the most
carried style during the Civil War. This has the full-length
blade. And at the base of the front of the blade is the
production date of 1865 along with the "US" mark and the
inspector initials of "G.W.C.". On the back of the blade is
the maker's mark of the Mansfield & Lamb Company of
Forrestdale, Rhode Island. the guard and pommel cap have a
great look to them. And the pommel cap you can see the
partial "CEW" inspector stamp still visible. The wire and
leather handle is original with a great look. The scabbard
is in great shape also.
