Peripheral
These distributor boards are usually midge or peripheral. You have some silver connectors along with the nickel-brass so I'll say peripheral here, but just barely
Peripheral. Too much board for a socket class not enough expansion for a mobo.
Two small ones will be telco big one is gold finger card.

No, just the two here. I know them both.
Wifi/3G/4g/LTE cards range gold finger card, telco, and some will get an upgrade to the unlisted air card class. The smallest most densely packed high end ones (e.g. Samsung chromeX, google/Samsung from google chrome books, apple from early iPads, Onyx) can even make cell phone board class.
The two small ones here are telco. The large one is finger card.

Would you think 25lbs of lap top li-ion batteries would be worth 4 lap top screens in unknown working condition? Me trading screens for batteries.

When you have enough (scrap) screens to entice a buyer you'd generally get 80c-$1.20 per lb.
If nothing else considered (shipping etc) looks to be at least break even and probably a profit.
Also considering it's generally easier to sell laptop batteries and 25lbs of laptop batteries is more weight than 4 screens in unknown condition; you're doing good.

I have a shipping quote around 23c/lb at 600lbs. I can get $1.75/lb for batteries and only $2/ea for screens. Ill use the screens as trading ammo to get batteries that are heavier and worth more per lb. Supposed to go collected from a new client tomorrow. Supposedly a pickup bed load full of desktops and lap tops. Ive made business cards now. This is beginning to slowly turn into something bigger than a hobby. Ive cut all the wires on the stack of desktop power supplies I had also. #2 insulated and a pound or 2 of shred steel. I cant make any profit hardly shipping them even at 23c a pound freight cost if they pay 25-30c/lb for power supplies with wires. So ill just make a big pile of wire, cut the plugs and sell it locally.
