With thanks to Lee, there is a JAN or 'war' color coding scheme that  uses
a black or silver 1st dot for capacitor dielectric type ID. It is  riefly
described here:

Thanks  all,

Hi,

I'm still working  on the ART-4 transmitter and want to put values on the
schematic. The unit  has about a half dozen 'postage stamp' mica caps.

They are all marked  like 'Type 5' on thos page:

http://www.radioremembered.org/capcode.htm

and  have 6 color dots.

Reading in the correct order, clockwise starting at  the top left, the  dots
are:

Black
Green
Brown
Black
Yellow
Red

See  the issue? The value SEEMS to be 051 pF; 400 VDC, 2%

Question: Was it  ever convention to use a leading zero in color codes for
this type of cap?  I've never seen it  before.

Thanks,

-John
