| Description: |  | The patent is for a groove in the base of the adjusting rosette of a Coes wrench, and a slotted retaining plate which is fixed between the upper portion of the wrench shank and the ferule.  This design removes the need for the "rosette retaining notch" feature of the Coes wrench. |  |
