This is not a mace, it is a spiked club, a so called morning star, an early version. I can not see, whether authentic or 19th ct. historicism.

also sometimes known as 'holy water sprinklers'. some even had a crude gun barrel under the removeable top spike.

Yeah, I also think this example could be from medieval or early renaissance. Regards, Roland |

Most of these are from 16th to 18th century. Müller/Kölling (Europäische Hieb- und Stichwaffen) show some from the Berlin collection.
