'''272629233/272629760''', the '''65/19&nbsp;atom''', is an unnoticeable comma in the 2.3.5.13.19 subgroup. It is the amount by which the 13-comma [[6656/6561]] ("tetris comma") exceeds the 19/5-comma [[41553/40960]] (an [[apotome]] above [[19/16]] lowered by [[5/4]]). Their difference is small enough that [[sagittal]] accidentals equate the 13-comma with the 19/5 comma: the most accurate possible representation of the 13th harmonic in sagittal accidentals (as three octaves above a <code>)/||| P5</code>) accrues this 0.0033{{cent}} error.

Alternatively, the 65/19&nbsp;atom is the difference between the 1/19&nbsp;comma [[19683/19456]] ([[pythagorean comma|3<sup>12</sup>/2<sup>19</sup>]] lowered by [[513/512]]) and the wilsorma [[65/64]].
Alternatively, the 65/19&nbsp;atom is the difference between the pythagorean comma [[pythagorean comma|3<sup>12</sup>/2<sup>19</sup>]] raised by [[513/512]] and the wilsorma [[65/64]].
