The Gold / Silver are for tolerance bands - I think a Gold stripe means +/-1%, a Silver stripe means +/-5% and No stripe means the resistor is supposed to be good to +/-10% of stated value. If you throw the "N" on the end of the letter string (for "No tolerance stripe") the following mnemonic is useful for remembering the whole deal: Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls Behind Victory Garden Walls. Get Some Now. Geeks. What can I tell you?
