I just took a look at Amazon, and there are a lot to choose from.
Also you might check with McMaster-Carr online catalog, and search for copper rivets. They might have what you need.
Another source I have used is Tandy Leather. Either might have "almost" what you need, and you may have to re-shape the heads to make them look like originals.

If you find exactly what you need elsewhere please post the source for us.

I just received today a supply of copper rivets (pins) that can be used to adhere labels to regulator cans. The earlier regulators had the labels riveted to the top can via copper rivets. These can be used for that purpose.

I include these with those labels purchased from me (vintagscubastuff.com) or will sell them for $0.08 each plus $0.58 for mailing.
