What ohm resistor is this? help!

Electronics
#1

I have a Yellow-Purple-Brown-Black-Gold resistor. Yellow and gold being on the larger part. The body of the resistor is blue. Can anyone tell me what ohm this is? Being partially color blind the color codes do me little good so I keep them in marked containers to keep them straight. But these buggers got mixed up. Thankfully my 10 year old can pick the colors out for me.

Thanks for any help

470 ohms, 5% tolerance. Being color blind, it would be worth your investment in a cheap multimeter.
