SMD code 59A — 4.02 Ω
A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is an EIA-96 marking: code 59 is 4.02 in the E96 series, A multiplies by 1. Parts marked this way are usually ±1%.

Codes you will mistake it for
One character apart from 59A. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
