    I didn't know what to make of it, and after years of this; the colours are so bad that it is amongst the worst I have seen. Browns and blacks have been confusable, as have browns and oranges in my past, but that takes the cake.

    The browns and blacks are very close indeed. But that's definitely a 100Kohm +/-1%.



    Usually the colours are far easier to differentiate, on this 13 Ohm +/-5% for example...

    Agree with Filterlab, and his lower examples are fairly typical of those found in Quad stuff.

    Pinks and golds were always at the tail end.

    On that note, I thought the read was from the end where the band was closest to the end.
