  • RICK: Hey.

  • How can I help you?

  • WILLIAM: Good afternoon.

  • A Calvary sword.

  • WILLIAM: Civil War Officer's sword model 1860.

  • Belonged to Colonel Bassett.

  • RICK: This is pretty cool.

  • It was pretty cool.

  • [laughs]

  • WILLIAM: I'm selling a model 1860 Officer's Civil War sword.

  • I found the sword up around Yosemite.

  • The sword is in beat up condition considering

  • it went through 22 battles.

  • I'm selling the sword because my wife wanted a new kitchen.

  • And my wife should get what she wants.

  • RICK: What's his name, again?

  • WILLIAM: Bassett.

  • RICK: OK.

  • Do you know much about this?

  • WILLIAM: Colonel Bassett came into the Civil War as a Captain

  • into the 17th regiment.

  • One of the most highly decorated officers

  • because he went in as Captain, came out as a Brev General,

  • went through 22 skirmishes and battles, and was

  • there at Lee's surrender.

  • There is no other sword that's seen as much battle

  • as this sword has seen.

  • RICK: OK.

  • What do you what to do with this?

  • I'm going to sell it.

  • And how much do you want for it?

  • 20 grand.

  • 20 Grand.

  • You mind if I have someone look at this?

  • No.

  • I would actually welcome it. - All right.

  • I will be right back.

  • Hang out.

  • WILLIAM: OK.

  • It is always nice to have an expert look at it.

  • I'm excited to listen to what he has to say.

  • It's history.

  • And that's what excites me, is to relive

  • the history of what these guys went

  • through during the Civil War.

  • RICK: The problem is I don't know if it was used in battle.

  • And I know nothing about this Bassett guy.

  • So I'm bringing in the smartest guy I know because he's

  • always got the answers.

  • This is the sword of the Colonel that he

  • says was later a General. - OK.

  • This is the Colonel Bassett that you called me about?

  • Yes.

  • That is the guy, Colonel Bassett.

  • I've never heard of him.

  • MARK HALL-PATTON: You know, one of the things about the Civil

  • War is there were so many men involved

  • that a lot of officers, sort of, drop off the radar.

  • You know, you hear about the real big name ones.

  • And you hear the ones that got some kind of really cool name--

  • Stonewall Jackson, or something like that.

  • Isaac Bassett-- there is no cool name there.

  • I'm curious-- what is your concern about it?

  • It is, obviously, a Civil War sword.

  • No, I mean, it's got a list of his battles right here.

  • MARK HALL-PATTON: Oh, really?

  • RICK: It's got his name engraved on it.

  • MARK HALL-PATTON: It would have been

  • extremely unusual for Bassett to have this done.

  • You didn't engrave your own sword.

  • - Correct. - People would give them to you.

  • Given that this is Colonel Bassett,

  • and it's ending it with Gettysburg,

  • that makes sense because he made Colonel in May of 1863.

  • Gettysburg is July of 1863.

  • So this was probably given to him as a presentation piece.

  • Everything fits.

  • Everything's right.

  • And this is an absolutely original

  • Civil War presentation sword.

  • And you don't normally find those.

  • RICK: I mean, he's saying that it's-- this

  • was broken off in battle.

  • And I don't think there's any way to prove that.

  • MARK HALL-PATTON: No.

  • Because if this was done from something hitting it,

  • you would see some sign of bending.

  • It looks to me like it's just a snap.

  • My guess is if something like this

  • had actually been broken in battle,

  • there'd be a record of it.

  • He would have made sure of that. RICK: OK.

  • You gave me all the information I need and more.

  • [laughs]

  • I always try.

  • RICK: You're the best, man.

  • Good to see you.

  • Very good to meet you. - Thank you very much.

  • Thank you.

  • Unfortunately, the sword is in terrible condition

  • because if it was in good shape, you'd

  • have people lining up around the block that would want this.

  • RICK: All right.

  • I'll tell you right now, if this thing was

  • in beautiful condition, I'd offer you $10,000 for it

  • because you have a Civil War General sword.

  • But it's just-- the break in it just detracts so much.

  • In this shape, I'll offer you $2,500.

  • WILLIAM: No.

  • I'm just going-- I'll have to decline that.

  • RICK: OK.

  • I mean, what's your best price?

  • Yeah, we're too far apart.

  • I completely understand.

  • But thanks for bringing it in, man.

  • I really appreciate it.

  • I really much appreciate you looking at it.

  • OK.

  • WILLIAM: The expert brought up two or three facts

  • that I was totally unaware of.

  • I think I'm gonna continue coming

  • up with some more research.

  • And then I'll probably put it back up for sale.

RICK: Hey.
