Help reading a surface mount aluminum cap

[kevinm34232]

I accidently knocked it off the board and pins are too short to solder. The cap has the following numbers on top:

14259
68
35K

Is that a 35V 68uF?

Is this electrolytic cap in silver color case?

Yes the silver ones with the black plastic base

I think you are correct about that value. Is there another one or two with the same labels?

I think you can tell from the size & by comparison with other similar caps on the same board whether 68 is 68 microfarads. Most probably you're right if they are in silver case...as you said.

Yes there are a couple others on there. I found the 68uF on digikey but looks like a 68uF 35V would be a rare one, so I wasn't sure.

Measuring the cap shows it appears to be 68uF, so I'm guessing 35V and it appears "K" may be the tolerance code which should indicate 10% according to a web page I found. Thanks for the assistance Ill give it a try..
