I'm sure someone will argue this, as I myself argue it.. BUT.. A very good friend of mine had a grandfather that worked in a factory that made coils, and he claims to this day that his grandfather always said there was NO DIFFERENCE in 6v and 12v coils.. I find it hard to believe, but I didn't work in the factory, his grandad did.. and he's been gone for many years now.
On another note.. I had a coil go out in my combine a few years back on a Saturday afternoon.. I ran to the shop, grabbed the first used coil I could find, which was a 6v.. I ran it 2 days that way and finished up combining. The coil was still on it when I sold it, but I did send the new owner down the road with a brand new coil in his hand.
My suggestion.. do what you have to do. The worst might happen is you'll cook the coil/points. I dare to bet the old tractor has been subject to worse in it's life.
