Philco 60, open oscillator coil
#4

The 3.5 ohm section is actually the primary. Typically bad, it is wound over the secondary with a thin insulator made of a nitrocellulose material. This stuff breaks down over the decades, causing the wire to corrode (turn green) and fail. In its worst cases it also attacks the secondary, rendering the entire coil bad.
