Hi guys I am a little confused on this old carbon resistor here, what exactly is the rule of thumb here, which is the first band ? The red ? If calculated like that this would be a 2.23 ohm resistor however it is reading 23.75 K ohms. If calculated the other direction it should be a 24K ohm resistor but that stripe looks silver to me not grey ‍♂️ thanks in advance
