I have boards with one side fully plated. Would they be worth more than the gold edge boards? Also wondering if the price is affected by removing copper transformers, as well as other copper or aluminum that is sticking up? My photos should show the type of cleanup I've done so please let me know it is ok. I realize its probably a bit of overkill but it makes it easier to pack and ship. My last question is regarding the worth of silver plated boards?

No photos that I can see.

Generally speaking:
-a fully plated gold board would probably be comparable to the gold edge category.
-transformers are a mix of copper and ferrous material and they may add some value to lower grade boards but likely bring the value down on most grades. So it'll depend on the board and size of the transformers, but usually safe to remove.
-copper is much higher value than a transformer so it'll benefit more boards than a transformer, but still will bring down higher grade boards
-aluminum is less valuable than copper and not much better than transformers so it'll be about the same as what I described about them.
-silver prices are up a bit, still it's much less valuable than gold and much more valuable than copper, so yes silver in boards still have a impact on value.
