Abstract
The dice (1) are for use in board games and other similar pastimes and they are of icosahedral shape. Each dice has twenty equal and similar faces, all of which have equal chances of scoring. Each of the faces of the dice is in the form of an equilateral triangle and the edges and corners formed adjacent faces are rounded to improve the rolling characteristics of the dice. A letter or a figure of any other combination of markings is marked on each face, depending on the requirements of the game. Two or more dice provide a large range of scoring possibilities.
