Thanks for all the great responses guys! You say all of the Corn and bean plates are there for that planter.... excuse my ignorance but shouldn't there be one size plate for beans and one size plate for corn and there is only two rows so why so many plates??

Thanks!....This is a mounted non snap coupler version.  As pictured, designed to fit Allis Chalmers only.  Early 1950 version...Dale

Agree with Nick, different size seed needs plates to match the seed size.
Looks like corn and bean plates are all there for that planter. 
I vaguely recall dad planting milo (maize) with this type of planter but I'm not seeing plates for that.

You need different size plate for different size seed or different crops depending on what he wants for them they might be a good deal on epay there 10-20$ a set I've seen both used on back for fertilizer but tapered cone seems to be more common

Those are all AC plates and you can get plastic inserts to also use JD plates.

I planted many an acre with that exact planter on a WD. Father bought it new in 1950, the drawbar fits into the plates with the hole in and the front bolt is taken out to mount and then put back in between the top and bottom drawbar peices. You let the drawbar swing and remove the two pins in the bail so it can be lifted up and let down. Don't know the model number and made a four row with another planter and a toolbar years latter.

If those seed plates are all for this 2 row id imagine that its pretty tough to find that many for it....or arent they to tough to come accross?

Don't know about the seed cans being tapered. I know some have tapered fertilizer and some newer had fiberglass fertilizer
