Most of those dogbone caps are in mmf. How many zeros do you put in the front of the number to convert to mf, for example 500 mmf would be .05mf?
Six zeros.
It would be .0005 mf
(The modern designation for that particular value would be 470 pf or .00047 mf.)

Nowadays, values below .001 mf (1000 mmf) are generally expressed in pf.
