The duplicate piece in each tangle is:
1 2 3 4
Tangle 1 Blue Red Yellow Green
Tangle 2 Yellow Blue Green Red
Tangle 3 Green Yellow Blue Red
Tangle 4 Red Green Yellow Blue
All 4 Tangles are the same puzzle, just colored differently.
Each has all 24 color permutations, plus a duplicate.
Each Tile also has a letter (A-Y) on the back, and a reference to the
Tangle that it occurs in. These letters appear to be for reference
only. I have found no corresponddence between the letterings in one
puzzle, and the letterings in another. I just use them as a convenience
for recording configurations, and sorting through the tiles.
