    PCB Consensus

    Hi Folks

    I have 700 of these boards (about 35 pounds) and I wonder if you guys could give me your thoughts on grade. I'm sending one off at the weekend to get graded.





    I have yet to remove them for the plastic unit, they are not to hard to get out but I don't want to do the work if I'm just going to get 10 cents a pound for them if you know what I mean.



    Cheers for your thoughts!
    Al

    What did it come out of? Looks like mid grade to me. But what do I know?

    If that is gold plating, should be at least low grade mother board.

    Thanks for the reply's guys! Devo I'm certain that yella is Gold. These boards came out of high end German boiler control units, circa 2006. Found in a dumpster...a whale or a kipper? lol

    Throw them up on feebay under scrap gold, they should be attractive to the home refining crowd.
