I have an old set of wooden dominoes. There are 96 in the set. Does this seem right? The wooden box is full, and they all fit in there neatly, but I know diddley about them and wanted to check with someone who knows about them.
Also, is it customary to have "blank" dominoes, that have no designs or dots (that is, solid black, with no dots and no engravings)?
Any help appreciated!

78 79 88 89 99
55 dominoes in a double 9 set
a double 12 set will also have (ABC being 10, 11, 12)
0a 0b 0c thru ca cb cc, for a total of 91
Not sure where 96 comes in.
Arrange what you have like I have here and see if there's some duplication.
And yes, blanks are zeros.

Thanks BF. Nothing better than spending my time arranging dominoes <smile>.
