My sword

I have an old sword I would like some info for. The blade is marked A.(?)WALSCHEND, SOLINGEN. Other side has a small raised brass button approx. 3/8 diameter marked PROVED in a circle with a three pointed star in the center. The style is similar the some Napolean or US civil war swords I saw in the Arms Museum in Louiseville Ky. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Steve

I have been trying to post a reply and post picture but am having problems. I have to reset my password each time I log on and I am not allowed to post pictures. Can anyone help? Steve

looks more like a fleur de le than a star to me maybe a french proof mark?
