Hi,
 The Woz was signing  Apple IIe/thru to Macs for the school he was teaching
at. This was to purchase new computers for the school. These I believe were
just the CPUs and the starting bid was $300.00 on Ebay. Did not look to see
what the went for in the end.
  I did see on EBay an Apple II or II+ with what they called Gold Ram Chips.
The Picture showed all the ram with looked like gold or brass metal covering
the outer edged of each ram chip. That went for over $330.00.
  Luckly My old Franklin  has those same Chips. May be I should move them
into my II+ :)
Take Care
