Does anyone know what this board is?

[Harv94]

A friend found this in an old van it has intel 1976 and intel 1980 ic’s on it. We are wanting to know what it went in and how valuable it is.

We can not help with that little information.
Pictures please.

Any information will be very appreciated

for refining purpose it's a mid grade board , i think , but maybe i'm wrong

for electronic purpose i guess you know better than I

Thank you for the information I’m trying to learn some of the very vast information related to electronics containing precious metals and grading boards is something I’ve did very little research on. Do you or anyone else have any tips on how to grade a board?

from what i've experienced , here are some tips to recognize them, but it's just an advice

a high grade board looks like a military grade board i.e many components (as IC , transistor ,etc...) have a great amount of precious metal in it that can be refined for a profitable return in a refining point of view

a mid grade board is a electronic boards from small electronic devices. These boards have very few small chips and usually contains big portion of passive electronic components.

Characteristics:

Boards from the telecommunication industry
Few IC's on the board
No visible gold plating
Can carry small metal pieces
Large portion of passive components ( e. transistors, batteries)

a low grade board contains a few PM and lots of BM

this is a general view but as you experienced it you will see

of course all of that is comparative and i'm not an expert so for sure others can tell you better advices

cheers.
