Well, I think you have found the reason here; 6952 uses 2 1x1 trans-yellow
round plates, and they are there as a pair as you described. Still I find it
odd that theres no other extras, like the levers, of which the set uses 8;
in a modern set, even if there's only 1 lever used, there's always an extra
included.
Thanks,
Arne
