Just two for this set but I have others missing many more. Yes, I think they are acorn head. I suppose slotted hex washer head screws are the closest modern equivalent. Perhaps they could be ground or filed down a bit.

I recalling see a demo on Youtube of burning modern zinc plating off with a blowtorch. Then the raw steel could be darkened with chemicals
