    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Sword, double-edged, Basket hilt constructed of round bars, junction plates pierced with &#039;key&#039; pattern and incised with lines bordering the junction plate. Quillon with scrolled terminal. Flat domed pommel with four grooves forming a cross, the grooves bordered by incised lines, with petals between the arms of the cross. Grip covered with sharkskin wound in spiral with copper band. Blade with three fullers. Marked on one side: St Andreas* over a figure of St Andrew wearing a mitre* and holding a cross front. Marked on the other side: Head of King James (in style of a Roman Emperor) over Crown and Single sceptre resting on a cushion. On one side of the tang is the blade makers mark resembling a lion. There is some evidence to indicate the inscription was removed and restored at some later date. Similar swords after the Union of 1707, have two sceptres on the cushion and the inscription reads King James III. Therefore this blade is pre-1707.<br />
