MOVIE 300 (SPARTANS) PROP SHIELD REAL? HELP w/MARK ON SWORD

I was told the shield was a prop from the movie 300 - any way to tell? All the ones I've seen are plastic - this is heavy & some type of metal(I think).
The sword I know is a repro but I can't find who the maker's mark is - can anyone help me?
Thank you; I appreciate any help.



SWORD MARK BELOW

 

Have you looked at this website?

I think the back is metal and the front is some sort of cast resin.

Because there are a lot of them out there with nearly identical dings and dents.

Would not be surprising for a movie to use cast pieces, but I think these are just replicas for fans (too many out there, too easy to get, for too little money).

 

Although, I will say, yours looks better. But that's not provenance.

 

Thanks I'll look at link! - any idea of sword's mark?

 

Can anyone tell me who made the sword?

 

There is no registry of maker's marks.If the mark was registered as a trademark you may be able through the trademark registry.

 

thanks

 

Good work in finding those, @Jivvy !

 

I found (finally!) a mark on the other side of the sword - it's a Del tin; a very good maker of reproduction swords.
So I'm thinking I'm going to put the sword & shield up on eBay as a group, and I know the shield is a Frank Miller Spartan 300 replica & they were from medieval times (right?), but can someone tell me what age the sword is suppose to be from? Can I list it under medieval reproductions like the shield?
Thanks (again!) for all the help/info

 

I believe the movie 300 was about the Battle of Thermopylae - meaning the setting is 480BC - not medieval.

 

Somebody put a repro helmet under

That category doesn't really take in the concept of movies or entertainment, but thought I'd look to see what I could find.

 

I wouldn't.

Geeks of different stripes and all.

 

I did - and already got a question asking if I'd sell just sword
