my old yale cylinder had 3 'mushroom' pins, and they're all different styles. They are all the same style, but different sizes.
Couldn't find a picture of it, so i modded a crypto.com pic.

instead of the thinner part being the same thickness the whole length of the pin, it's thinner at one side. (Are these just mushroom pins or something special?)

The unmodded crypto.com pic is a spool pin. The pin from your yale is a mushroom pin.

That does not look like the ones in my Yale lock. I'll try to get some pictures of them up soon.
