Measuring 38 1/4 inches overall, this fine sword is fitted with a 33 inch single edged single fuller blade, decorated on each side of the ricasso and in a set of 16 1/4 inch panels with gold highlighted and niter blue filled etching, with scroll and floral designs. The right panel is marked "SEAN ETERNOS LOS LAURELES" (may the laurels be eternal, referencing a line from the Argentine National Anthem) and the left "POR MI PATRIA" (for my country), as well as "FABRICA/DE/TOLEDO" on the left ricasso and "DANIEL DOBAL/AL CORONEL/JUAN J. GRANEROS" on the right. The hilt is gilt finished, with busts of Liberty and Victory on the languets, raised oak leaves around Medusa's head on the stirrup guard, a sculpted and engraved Argentine Coat of Arms on the dove head pommel, and a ribbed one piece hard rubber grips. The scabbard is constructed from blued steel, with one suspension ring. Included with the sword is a brown leather case marked "CORONEL/JUAN J. GRANEROS/FEBRERO(February) 1929", with a white velvet lined French-cut interior with spaces for the scabbard and sword. Daniel Dobal has not been positively identified; records show a Daniel Dobal as receiving a patent for an automatic welding machine c.1930. Coronel (Colonel) Juan Graneros is recorded as a director of the Police of the Federal Capital in Buenos Aires circa 1928-1930. Graneros was part of a conspiracy within the cabinet of then-President Irigoyen, which considered the President mentally unfit for the job. This conspiracy, while not actively participating in the coup d'état of General Uriburu in 1930, played a critical role by downplaying and suppressing evidence of the impending rebellion, as well as obstructing attempts of loyal cabinet members to detain the members of Uriburu's conspiracy.

Exceptionally fine overall. The excellent blade is bright overall, with mild spotting, strong finish and detail in the etching, bright gold and strong fiery blue. The hilt shows some minor wear concentrated on the edges, with some dings on the grips. Minor spotting and dings are visible on the scabbard. The case is fine, with minor stains and scattered tears.
