Carl Eickhorn Sword???

Jbguns
I just came across this sword. Im trying to figure out what country this sword belongs to and a round about date and value. It has a few crowns on the sword and it says Solingen on the side. It has Carl Eickhorn markings on it. But the only thing I seen to find online are the Germans swords with the lions head. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks Joe

    Solingen is the sword-making capital of Germany and Carl Eickhorn is a major producer. They made many swords, daggers and bayonets for the Third Reich and are still in business.

    It's Romanian

    The Coat of arms on the sword is the Romanian coat of arms.

    That particular coat of arms was used by Romania 1922-1947. And seeing how it's Solingen and Eickhorn marked I would place it WW II era. They were a Nazi ally.

    It's officer grade from the looks. I would place more value then a German Officers Dress Saber of the same condition, the ones with the lions head pommel, since fewer numbers in the Romanian Army were certainly produced. I've seen the German ones of that condition sell for $300 to $500 on Manions.

    I'd search the web for those that sell these swords and your sure to get a fare quote from them.
