If you measure it with your DMM, which you _should_ have, it should
measure 5.6 ohms, plus or minus 5%. However most DMMs have a half ohm
or so of resistance in the test leads, etc.

I'm assuming that if you can read the colors, then it hasn't been
overheated, and it should still be its original value.
