"Thar's gold in them thar phones!"

For some raisin, one must have exactly one tooth to say that properly. No more, no less. One single tooth.

I think the main question here is:

How many phones could a phone chuck chuck if a phone chuck could chuck phones?

As for the gold, there's not enough gold in one or two phones to be of much value. The headline is a little misleading.

Yeah, a single golden tooth.

There's gold in almost all electronics. Most people don't have the equipment to melt it down to extract the gold and good luck getting any decent money trying to recycle old electronics. Believe me, I've tried it. Most people won't even take old broken gadgets for free.
