This is an original Eickhorn 'Wrangel' doves head model 1693. It is the later aluminum hilted style that doesn't wear as well as the earlier brass hilted ones.
Granted the condition is rough but it is an original sword with a scarce distributors mark on the blade.
All the best.

An opinion should be the result of thought, not a substitute for it.
Saw this sword on an other forum and considered it as a good one. Like Tony said: Late style manufacturing aluminium with a gold wash. You could this also find by the Prinz Eugen Pattern.
100% original. Not in great shape, but its legitimate. Def. aluminum hitled. Like stated, dist. marked on blade. Often times the dist. marking can be found on the blades spine as well.
