Howdy folks...

These two bayonets were presented a local Historical Society meeting...Likely/Hopefully "Canadian". I apologize for the poor pics....
The blades are not "flat". "V" topped and, kind of "scalloped" on the bottom.

Both a re pretty pitted, but, the long one still has a vague stamp on it (something over a crown maybe?).

Any/all replies appreciated
 
Here is my guess:

- Top one looks US, maybe Model 1816

- Bottom could be for a Brown Bess
 
They look like musket socket bayonets....The larger of the 2 I presume is for the brown bess 75 cal--the smaller one I bet is either for a 69 cal musket like a charleville or maybe a later percussion conversion smoothbore springfield or perhaps a 58 cal rifle musket or something.

Very collectable items
