Gotta be honest, if I saw this sitting next to a dumpster I'd probably think "what is this worthless circuitboard doing here." and then I'd take it to properly e-waste it only to later find out:
"That was worth how much!?"
That literally happened: a woman dropped off computer junk at an e-waste facility in Milpitas in 2015. The facility found an Apple I in the stuff and sold it for $200,000. They tried unsuccessfully to get in touch with the woman to split the money.

How much is it worth? I couldn't find any prices on the page.
If you click on one that says '$ [date]' instead of '$ no auction' then it will say. E.g. August 2022 for $677k: https://www.apple1registry.com/en/2.html
Ahh I didn't realize, thanks!
Hundreds of thousands of dollars.
