Board Grade (missing components)

[Immulmen]

The green board underneath the brown one has gold grids where a pushbutton may have went. Those I throw in my OMG bucket. No value in the ones with black carbon where the gold is on that one.(under the OMG board) I usually take the time on the microwave boards to knock the larger IC's off, if their small they go with the board.

Some very old Comdial business phones had all the grids and tracings exposed on both sides and they where all gold plated. If I think of it I will get a photo. I probably tossed 1000 of them before I started scrapping.
