You confuse a matter just a 'term'
Goldwafer refer to Pic 16F84+24LC16
Silvercard refer to Pic 16F876+24LC64 or Pic 16F877+24LC64

Alpha chips only the manufacture, it may state anyelse, to know more about what card you have can't tell just to see with your eyes, You should have to use a programmer (USB) which can detect the type of the card.

When buy a card it is better to know the type of processor and memory size you plan to use, instead call it by false name.
