I don't want to mention Indian maces because it's another topic.
Plus Indian maces are quite common compare to Persian and Ottoman ones...

If the descriptions from auctions, museums and private sales etc are correct, Persian maces are much rarer than Ottoman maces. From what I have seen the mace on the left is Persian.

As far as Indian maces go, really old Indian maces are quite rare.
