What are those little metal dots?

Hi. Yes, I believe that they are simply for aesthetics. But I also think that they make it easy to mix when getting ready for a new game. One more thing, they make it easy to flip them over to see what you got. Hope that helps.

The metal dots in the middle serve 2 purposes; one to help shuffled the dominoes so they won't get damage on the surface and two to keep dominoes from scratching eachother when storing away in the box. There can be more purposes for the dots...

At one time dominoes were make of two discrete materials (often ebony and ivory), and the "spinner" was actually a small pin whose purpose was to hold the white ivory face to the dark ebony side of the domino. In other words, the purpose was purely mechanical. Today, the spinner is still used in some domino sets, largely because out of respect for tradition, but also because the spinner can help protect the face of the dominoes as they are shuffled, and can make it easier to spin or rotate the domino in place. The pin is also sometimes known as a "pivot". The spinner is located in the middle of a domino's dividing bar, and is generally made of metal and rounded off so as to avoid scratching the table top. Spinner pins are only used in western-style domino sets. They are not used in Chinese dominoes, since the spinner prevents the tiles from being stacked cleanly.

I'm not positive, but these tabs certainly seem to be metal. The "click" when the plates are inserted sounds metallic.

Im sure they are probably nickel but I dont know, but be aware they are small. I like a longer pin. I hoped this helped.

It has magnets. In the picture, the white dots are the magnet covers. I hope it helps.

I don't think a dot has any significance. Just have it cut as you would normally.

I just checked the bottom of mine and there are 2 very small circles that have arrows that are pointing at a 5 and an 11.

They're not LED's, they are small rubber dots that are part of the handle grip.

Made of some type of clear, bendable rubber. PLEASE NOTE: The picture makes the bubble dots appear to be way bigger than they are. In fact, they are quite small. The only advantage of these is that you can cut out the size that you want, peel and stick.

Two. The small dot you see in the picture at the bottom corner is a screwhead.

I looked at mine & saw the little black dots as well. Never noticed them before! The only thing I could find is that these are seeds from weeds that get mixed in. I've been using chia seeds for at least a year now & have had only positive results especially with my HDL's. Don't worry about the black dots. If it was something bad it would be all over the Internet. : ) Hope this helps.

They look metal and upon further investigation, they are 'metalized plastic'. They look good though and seem to hold up well.

Mine are still in the box (a delayed gift), but they look/seem like metal to me. I'm pretty happy with the value, although the assortment was somewhat standard. Only a few "unique" vehicles (police, bulldozer) and the rest somewhat ordinary; but I think kids will like them anyway!

They are plastic safety eyes, like the ones you often see on stuffed animals. They look very nice.

The 'dots' are concave, not raised. They are not that deep and it hasn't proved to be a problem when cleaning at all.

It's the plastic version vs the metal. I have both. They are exactly the same. I run them on my real steel. Great red dots l.

They are metal. Already dealth with the plastic ones. After extensive tries by the squirrels to steal the food they now just look at it.
