Turning over will not create a new bracelet.

			For a(6)=60, pair up the 120 permutations of BCDEF, each with its reverse, such as BCDEF-FEDCB.  Precede the first of each pair with an A, such as ABCDEF.  These are the 60 arrangements, all chiral.  If we precede the second of each pair with an A, such as AFEDCB, we get the chiral partner of each. - _Robert A. Russell_, Sep 27 2018
