Gary, Your dial looks just like mine. Is your a Victor Safe? An olive color and four fixed wheels? Probly had a round murial close to the top of maybe an eagle? I have seen them with square murials but mine has a round one. Is yours a four number combo? Opening those safes can be kind of tricky sometimes even with the combo. I found when you get to the last number if you pull out a little on the knob then the tumblers line but better plus your fingers are already in place to turn the knob where you dont knock it off the last number. Ill go over one more time how I do mine and see if I might have missed something. You spin it to the right until you get to the start number. You have to spin it a few times until you feel it tighten. Then spin it back counter clock wise three rounds to the second number. In other words you pass the second number two times and stop on it the third time. Then spin it two times clockwise to the third number. In other words you pass the third number one time and stop on it the second time. Then spin it counter clock wise to the last number. You dont pass this number and this is where I put a little pull pressure on the knob. Go slow and you can feel the click when it hits. Then twist the knob the other way and it should open. You have to be pretty exact lineing up the numbers with the notch on the top of the dial.
