The small icosacronic hexecontahedron is a uniform dual polyhedron. It consists of 60 kites.

If its dual, the small icosicosidodecahedron, has an edge length of 1, then the short edges of the kites will measure $\frac{\sqrt{30\left(65-19\sqrt5\right)}}{22} ≈ 1.18133$ , and the long edges will be $\frac{\sqrt{30\left(85-\sqrt5\right)}}{38} ≈ 1.31129$ . The kite faces will have length $3\frac{\sqrt{10\left(3517-585\sqrt5\right)}}{418} ≈ 1.06668$ , and width $\sqrt5 ≈ 2.23607$ . The kites have two interior angles of $\arccos\left(\frac34-\frac{\sqrt5}{20}\right) ≈ 50.34252°$ , one of $\arccos\left(-\frac{1}{12}-\frac{19\sqrt5}{60}\right) ≈ 142.31856°$ , and one of $\arccos\left(-\frac{5}{12}-\frac{\sqrt5}{60}\right) ≈ 116.99640°$ .

A small icosacronic hexecontahedron with dual edge length 1 has vertex coordinates given by all even permutations of:

$\left(±\frac{5-\sqrt5}{4},\,±\frac{5+\sqrt5}{4},\,0\right),$
$\left(±3\frac{5+7\sqrt5}{44},\,±3\frac{15-\sqrt5}{44},\,0\right),$
$\left(±\frac{\sqrt5}{2},\,±\frac{\sqrt5}{2},\,±\frac{\sqrt5}{2}\right),$
$\left(±3\frac{9\sqrt5-5}{76},\,±3\frac{15+11\sqrt5}{76},\,0\right),$
$\left(±3\frac{10+\sqrt5}{38},\,±3\frac{10+\sqrt5}{38},\,±3\frac{10+\sqrt5}{38}\right).$
