In geometry, the great truncated icosidodecahedron or great quasitruncated icosidodecahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U₆₈. It is given a Schläfli symbol t_0,1,2{5/3,3}, and Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, .

Cartesian coordinates

Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a great truncated icosidodecahedron centered at the origin are all the even permutations of

(±τ, ±τ, ±(3−1/τ)),

(±2τ, ±1/τ, ±(1−2/τ)),

(±τ, ±1/τ², ±(1+3/τ)),

(±(1+2/τ), ±2, ±(2−1/τ)) and

(±1/τ, ±3, ±2/τ),

where τ = (1+√5)/2 is the golden ratio.
