COMMENTS
Equivalently,
1) the number of n-colorings of the faces of the triakis icosahedron, which is the polyhedral dual of the truncated dodecahedron.
2) the number of n-colorings of the faces of the pentakis dodecahedron, or n-colorings of the vertices of the truncated icosahedron, its polyhedral dual.
3) the number of n-colorings of the faces of the deltoidal hexecontahedron, or n-colorings of the vertices of the rhombicosidodecahedron, its polyhedral dual.
Colorings are counted up to the full icosahedral symmetry group of order 120.
FORMULA
a(n) = (1/120)*(n^60 + 15*n^32 + 16*n^30 + 20*n^20 + 24*n^12 + 20*n^10 + 24*n^6).
Asymptotically, a(n) ~ n^60/120.
