59049/57344, or Harrison's comma, is the amount by which ten 3/2's exceed 7/4 (all octave-reduced). In other words, (3/2)¹⁰ = 7 ⋅ 59049/57344. It factors into simpler commas as (81/80)²(225/224), that is, two syntonic commas and a marvel comma.

Tempering out this comma will map the 7/4 to the augmented sixth (e.g. C-A♯), and the only notable 7-limit temperament that does that is septimal meantone.
