21/13, the tridecimal supraminor sixth, is ca. 830 cents in size. It has a very good approximation in 13edo, and notably, 5 of these intervals differ from 11/1 by 4084223/4084101, a comma of a mere 0.052 ¢.
This interval is a ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci numbers and thus a convergent to acoustic phi (the interval of a golden ratio). In this case, 21/13 is ~2.8 ¢ flat of acoustic phi. It differs from 13/8, the previous such convergent, by 169/168, and from the following convergent 34/21 by 442/441.
