That particular one is worth about the same to a collector,as the gold content.However there are a few 186/286's in that package that are worth much more.
 
Mic, can you please elaborate a bit on this? I also have about 4 different 286's in the same package and I never felt like AR them as they are so nice.
 
What I mean is,the collectable value (right now) is approximately the same as the gold content.
 
"However there are a few 186/286's in that package that are worth much more" - I was hoping for some model numbers/prices about these.
 
They can sell for $8.00 or so to some collectors. Unusual ones
can sell for more. I have collected and sold them for about
five years now. I too, think they are cool looking and don't deserve
an acid bath.

I have some regulars that sell them to me in quantity (50+) at $3 to $4 each.
Anyone who wants to can certainly PM me with what you have available. 8)
 
I have the same cpu dated 1978 and wondered if age made them more collectable,i just listed it on ebay so i spose il find out either way lol.
 
I was able to acquire the rest of the 286, plus a few 386/486, DEC's & others.

I likee the chips in picture one. 8)

Let's horse trade. PM me with how you want to value them and I will
PM you with some stuff like gold fingers, etc.

Thanks!
 
I've been checking out the teeth on my "horses"... the i387DX is a rare math co-processor 16-33 mhz.

I also found that one of the small chips is an iR80186-10;
1 is an iR80286-8,
2 are AMD-R80286-8/C2,
5 are AMD-R80286-10/S,
1 is a Siemens R80286-1-R.

Even the "teeth" on the white iC2708 looked pretty healthy, too! :lol:

If you really likee them, PM me an offer that I can't resist! :mrgreen:

I acquired another R80286-8, plus some MC68020RP16E with silver color pins. Also some IDT7143LA70G and a board with more than 150 of the gold lid ceramic IC's. Old, cool stuff... 8)

Phil,

Most of the boards I have run across like that the chip's have little collector value, especially if soldered on. Probably better to just plan on processing all of them.
 
wow, very nice Phil

I hope you are saving it.... it would be a shame to smash it...

I just got me an Intel R80286-8, made in 1982. Does it have any collector value?

Phil

Wish I could find one like that. If I do get one I would save and show it off to other. It is nice to look at and history.
