An old sword blade

[mglentz4125]

I found this sword blade in an area where I have found a War of 1812 button, gobs of musket balls, trade rings and gun parts. Not sure on how old it is though.
the only marking I can find is the number '10' stamped on the tang.

Looks like a “70” stamped into it? It’s old. Not sure if it’s war of 1812, but it’s old.

I believe the stamp is the number "10" actually. Agree...i think its old but just not sire how old.
