I'm not sure what I should be looking for, so here's a bunch...
On the underside of the board is "Atari C021503 Rev E".
To the upper left of the cart port on top is "Atari 1983".
To the upper right of the cart port on top is a stamp of "EFA 004".
Do any of those help?

Ah... Yes, I did. Interesting idea; don't know why that didn't
occur to me. Sadly, I'm not sure where my spares are, so I'm not
going to be able to test the theory any time soon. Ugh, maybe I
should just order a spare or two...
