What am I missing????????:
(based on counts of 104 pits in the exterior circle,
                                  80 pits in the interior circle,
                           and 18 pits in each of the 4 lines of the cross,,
                                  18
                                  18
                          +     * 18 *
                                 256  and NOT 260 pits total)
