removing spider gears 7.25

I am mostly familiar with the earlier 7 1/4's. That said, I have never seen a 7 1/4 with "C" clips.
I've never seen one either, but all the books show it and talk about them. Have you ever seen a ten bolt 7.25? I've seen that....and it MIGHT have had c clips, I don't know, because I didn't open it up. But they have an octagonal cover.
