That's a real old board seeing the battery soldered onto it! I remember some of those while not running the systems for too long once getting into custom building. I forgot whether that was seen on an IBM I386 flat top style case or after bartering with a tech for the AST I486 also two 5 /14" floppy drived system I used later.

One of those saw a soldered battery. Or was it battery or capacitor? You could be looking at a cap instead. In regular use the cap would normally hold a charge for so many days until it discharger completely. Then you had to re-enter time and date and blah blah blah all over again! Glad those are long gone!
