Correct; I mentioned the size in my original posting.
My examples, however, have 5 small rivets.
Whereas some Bukharan weapons could have had 3 rivets, do you know of any piece ( Afghani, Indian or Persian) that has 5 rivets (any size) and is not Bukharan?
If the "5-rivet" sign is valid, that would simplify ID of weapons in the future.
