The Uniform Polyhedron $U_{68}$, also called the Great Quasitruncated Icosidodecahedron, whose Dual is the Great Disdyakis Triacontahedron. It has Schläfli Symbol t' $\left\{{3\atop{\textstyle{5\over 2}}}\right\}$ and Wythoff Symbol $2\,3\,{\textstyle{5\over 3}}\,\vert$. Its faces are $20\{6\}+30\{4\}+12\{{\textstyle{10\over 3}}\}$. Its Circumradius for unit edge length is

\begin{displaymath}
R={\textstyle{1\over 2}}\sqrt{31-12\sqrt{5}}\,.
\end{displaymath}
