    Motorola chips

    I just want to see what category everybody thinks these Motorola chip will go into?? They look just like all the other Motorola chips on top, but the legs on bottom are silver. They were removed from boards, so they have been soldered. Usually when chips are removed from boards you can still see gold at the very top of the legs. We came across quite a few of these.

    Probably worth more to a collector than scrap value...i doubt there is more than a few dollars of gold in each one

    Mario has Motorola chips listed as a category for $65/lb....pretty decent $$$. Check with Ewasted (Mario) and send him a pic...he will tell you if that is the moto chips he is talking about.

    Good luck!

    For odd stuff like this, Ebay is probably your best bet. Noble metal works might have a better answer as he has processed every chip you can imagine.
