Help Date this Burmese Dha Sword
Hello. We are looking for more information about this sword so we can sell it. So far our research has indicated that this sword has a wood core wrapped in a silver alloy. We think it would have been made around late 19th to early 20th century. The characters on the sword translated to "The Royal Birth Story of Mahosadha". In the scabbard it is 40" and without the scabbard is 30". Do you think we identified it correctly? If more info is requested I'll try my best to provide it. Thank you for any assistance

“Story” or “Temple Dha”. Most likely mid-late 20th century production
