We have printed circuit boards with gold on them what to do?

Please forgive me for bothering you about this, however, we are looking for someone to sell the boards we get in with gold on them. But we do not know how much to ask per pound. Is this a question you can answer? And do you know if there is gold in TV sets? We get a lot of these here.
Thank you for any help you give.

Hi, David. Donate it to an e-waste recycling co-op. Crutchfield has a nice widget that will locate one for you. Old electronics and TVs in general have a resale value of zero or less. In some towns you have to pay a fee to dispose of used electronics. E-waste is a worldwide plague, but if recycling is done exactly right, it can be recycled in environmentally friendly fashion for about break-even.
