Well, all we have to go by is the artwork, so make it look like those in the pictures! I just grabbed a handy stick, maybe 4-1/2 feet long, and stuck a wood ball on the end, since that's what I had at the time! Some folks get fancy with a metal ball of some sort, but I think I'd want a little better evidence for that.
Cowan shows a tesserarius carrying one of these? Haven't seen that book, so I can only assume he has a reason for doing that. Seems odd, though. I would have guessed a tablet would be a better indicator of that rank--the "tessera" with the watchword written on it.
Vale,
Matthew
