I have no idea how to look these chips up, the gold ceramic ones. I'm not sure were to even go to, to find out. I was suggested to try out here.

here are the pictures of what I have, what do you all think? Should I scrap these or try to harvest the components? |

| Well I also tried reaching out to some people on reddit and they helped me out a bit! i'm still not sure if I should try to sell the components individually or try to take them off the board and recycle them into their metals. I'd hate to destroy something that is actually rare |

Leave them on the board and sell the boards whole. De-soldering them greatly reduces the value to a collector. A gold scrapper would not care but a collector - well personally I dislike de-soldered chips. These are nice looking boards! _________________ best rgds.

These boards are probably from a telephone exchange or some other communications device - maybe a military radio. The company GTE stands fro General Telephone & Electronics Corporation so that might help you in your research _________________ best rgds.
