Dominoes with concealable spots
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The object of this improvement is to provide dominoes that are not turned over before the shuffle. The spots, or indicia, on the top side of the main structure of the domino can be caused to become concealed and during this procedure, spots on the opposite side of the main structure become visible when a player chooses the domino and places it on its edge in front of him. Time is not lost in turning over the dominoes during or between games.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     FIG. 1 shows the main structure of the domino 10 plus four outside rollers 12, four inside rollers 14 and a central gear 16. The spots, or indicia, of the dominoes will be painted or otherwise marked on the flat surface 18 of each roller where applicable. 
     FIG. 2 shows one of the four outside rollers 12 with the gear 20 in the middle of the roller 12. This gear 20 will mesh with the large gear 22 of the central gear 16. 
     FIG. 3 shows the central gear 16 which has one large gear 22 which meshes with gears 20 of the four outside rollers 12 and two small gears 24, one on each side of the large gear 22. Each small gear 24 meshes with the gears 26 of the two inside rollers 14. 
     FIG. 4 shows one of the inside rollers 14. It also has a flat surface 18 on which a spot can be placed, if applicable. The inside roller 14 has a slightly smaller diameter than the outside rollers 12 so that when the domino is placed on the table, only the outside rollers 12 will support the domino 10 and there should be a minimum of wobble. 
     OPERATION OF THE INVENTION 
     The dominoes are placed on a table and if any spots, or indicia, are turned up, shuffling of the dominoes will cause the outside rollers 12 to turn. As the outside rollers 12 turn, they will turn to the flat part 18 of the rollers 12 and 14 and then the domino will slide on the table. On the top side of the domino the round part of each roller will be above the main structure of the domino and all of the spots will be concealed. If the person shuffling the dominoes sees spots on some dominoes, he must move those dominoes in a side-ways direction, thereby causing the rollers to roll to the flat part 18 of the rollers 12 and 14. As the lower rollers 12 and 14 turn, the gears 20 on the rollers 12 turn the central gear 16 which in turn turns the upper rollers 12 and 14. The upper rollers 12 and 14 will also turn to a position with the flat surfaces 18 turned downward totally concealing the spots, or indicia, as viewed from the top of the domino. 
     The foregoing descriptions have been given for clearness of understanding only and no unnecessary limitations should be understood therefrom as some modifications will be obvious to those skilled in the art.
