What is the gold value?
ARRgh!? Not more than a few milligrams per the usual DIP sockets. Likely
not worth the trouble of grinding them up to extract the gold from all
that base metal.
Of late (the last 20 years or so), I've turned to drilling single-sided
PCB for socket patterns and using the push-in ww pins. Makes for a much
neater project with a good ground plane.
