new guy here with something I cant seem to identify. My initial suspicion was that its a resistor of some sort?

 

It is a tantalum smd capacitor
477 = 470000000pF = 470μF
And if the letter after 447 is A it is a max 10V cap.

 

It has a band at one end, so maybe it's a diode.
I cannot interpret the numbers.
