With mirrors
An alternate construction exists from the [(5,5,3)] family, as the omnitruncation t012(5,5,3). It is shown with two (colors) of decagons.

Symmetry

The dual of this tiling represents the fundamental domains of the *553 symmetry. There are no mirror removal subgroups of [(5,5,3)], but this symmetry group can be doubled to 652 symmetry by adding a bisecting mirror to the fundamental domains.
