I have an V20 cpu, 8088 80186 compatible, gold cap, gold pins. Where does this chip fall in the cpu payout list?

The v20 was a 16-bit chip with a split 8 bit compatibility mode.
A weird cpu.
I’d have to see a photo. I’ve HEARD of some having caps but have never actually seen one myself. I only know they had a hard start being as, er, wildly designed, as they were.
Most were polymer dip packages or ceramic quads.
It would be 8086 class: seeing a photo is just for my own amusement.

I confused this V20 with an 8087 that I also had. The V20 was plastic silver pin IC.

If it has the gold cap and gold legs, it’s 8086 class
