The sabers produced by R. Rohrig & Co. Solingen (R&C) were imports from Germany, that is why they often lacked maker marks. This company often made swords and exported them for the high demand during the civil war. These swords, due to the blade manufacturer, are considered rare and highly sort after. Even though it is not known if this sword is confederate or not, about 90% of these were made for the confederate side, and if can be proven would be worth a lot more.
