7777/7776, the power of 6 repdigit comma or pulsar comma is an unnoticeable comma of 223 millicents, and it is a part of 101-limit just intonation.

The comma derives from the resemblance of a perfect power of 6, 7776, to a repdigit number 7777. It is the difference between a stack of 5 hexataves and 7, 11, and 101 harmonics stacked, or when octave-reduced, between 7/4, 11/8, and 101/64 and the Pythagorean major seventh, 243/128. It is also the difference between 404/243 and 128/77.

The name origin is the following: power of six repdigit - psr, which is the astronomical shortening for pulsars.
