mace
 

hi all, this old mace has numbers and dots on the shaft, sorry for the bad pics, any help will help..................thanks..............jimmy

Jimmy, possibly Indian but you really need to take some better photos of the designs, is the end of the shaft flared at all or is it the same diameter all the way to the end. Here is an Indian mace which looks similar.
