The goal of this article is to compare the geometrical structure of polytopes with 60 vertices, generated by the finite Coxeter group H 3 , i.e. an icosahedral group in three dimensions. The method of decorating a Coxeter–Dynkin diagram is used to easily read the structure of the reflection‐generated polytopes. The decomposition of the vertices of the polytopes into a sum of orbits of subgroups of H 3 is given and presented as a `pancake structure'.
