I've taken apart a few televisions, CRT and flat screen, what grade will these boards be?

CRT will give you low and mid grade occasionally peripheral

Lcd will give you midgrade and peripheral. Sometimes low telco
This includes LED backlit lcd

Photo projection will supply low grade to high telco.
DLP is the same plus the DLP chip.

Plasma tends to be peripheral to high telco. And a midgrade or peripheral power board. NEVER attempt to scrap further back to front than the giant sealed aluminium backplate of the screen. It’s welded shut for a reason and that has nothing to do with the value to them in mandatory take back programs.
Those gases are not for inhalation. Yes you get high. Then you die. x(

Thanks for the info! One more question, is the statement true that if the board is brown it's low grade?

98.5% of the time.
;)

There’s exceptions
Most floppy disk boards are peripheral. Mid90s-mid 2000s “smart” remote boards will be peripheral

Bread board and kit system boards depend on what’s attached.
10bit and earlier computer mainboards tend to be brown.
So if it looks like a peripheral (or better) board but is brown post a photo.
