A 3D view of the head assembly showing the outer circular iron ring, a bracket that holds one coil and a second coil. One is probably the erase coil, the other the read/write coil, I would guess.

I sent one of my dead Commodore 1541 floppy drive heads to someone with access to a high resolution CT scanner. They did a lot of HARD work and came back with super high resolution scans of the head and a possible place where the coil has been damaged. I am SUPER impressed.
