Tom, The #8 Little Genius plow was not built yet in the 1920s. I think you probably have a #2 or #4 Little Wonder plow.
With the Little Wonder, the tail wheel does not swivel on turns, and the whole rear end of the plow raises off the ground when lifted out of the soil. Either way, you have a nice plow to enjoy!
You could grind off the bolts so that they are flush. New moldboard bolts are available at some farm stores or at machinery dealers. I have not seen square bolts on old moldboards, but I hear that some people used them. Everything should be flush on a moldboard. If you do take them off, save them as square bolts and nuts were the type that were used everywhere on those old plows.
Be sure to take apart the lifting hub and clean it out to avoid frustration in the field...grease in there will be like steel after all these years. It is a simple hub and is easy to clean.
Send us a picture of your plow if you can. It is fun thing to own.
