I have a good Toledo repro of that sword from the 50s.
I don't know how close it is to the original. My grip and pommel are a little different but that guard is very familiar.

I'll take some pics when I get home if you like.
It has a screw on pommel so I can dismount the hilt and take detailed pics of the the guard if you like.

Not that helpful, but here is a picture of Francisco Pizarro's sword from the same museum
