Sometimes there can be a lot of gold hidden inside
plain jane looking
electronics. Sometimes not.
The boards in question were standard DEC M-series,
with vanilla TTL parts. No gold plating except the
edge connector, and whatever was used inside the
plastic DIPs. He paid $50 a board for a few quad or
hex-width boards.
I really couldn't tell you what the gold is worth, but
I have a good idea how much I have to offer for
certain kinds of boards to pry them away from someone
who does.
