Yes, C60 & C61 are also examples of this type. That scabbard & silverwork style is seen quite often, on a variety of dha (see ## 42, 49, 52, 52, 64, 66, 69, 70, C13, C34-36, C52, C53, C60-63). I think that there also is a relation to dha of the style seen in ## 37, 44, 61, C1, C41, and the like, which have a similar "foot" on the scabbard, with varying degrees of flare, and the sectioned scabbard fittings as opposed to bands. The same silver bead and filigree design is also seen on the somewhat differently-styled #45.
