    Cool Silver Mica Capacitors

    I was researching some parts on a board, and I found some off looking capacitors ... it turns out they are silver bearing !
    They are called "silver mica capacitors " ,they have a pretty unique look to them and are usually used for medium and ( relatively ) high voltages ...
