In actual practice, few, if any, modern 12-Volt coils that do not require an external resistor actually have an internal resistor, as a discreet component.

They are simply wound with more turns of wire in the primary, to accomodate 12-Volt power without excessive primary current draw that would overheat the coil and/or burn the points.

And, KEB, I fully agree with you about the efficacy of the external resistor with a starting bypass.
