Hi Bruce,
no. Same color code here.
However, certain carbon composition resistors from the 60's/70's are notoriously unreliable. The common effect is drift to significantly higher values. Besides that, they can get pretty noisy.

While tracing out a PC board from an instrument manufactured in Germany, I
quickly discovered the color code on 1/4-watt composition resistors is not
the same as that commonly used in the US  For example, I would measure
about 10,000-ohms across a presumably good resistor that appeared to be marked
2700-ohms.  Has/does Germany used a different code for such parts?
