Added another photo. Close-up of the daughter board.

It does say A2400/A3400

I can see "Rev 1" on the board so it's definitely an early machine. Also "VDE Edition". However it's also labelled "A4000" so not sure if it's an A3400. Commodore tended to change model# designations a lot. It does seem to match the A3400 described here:

Exciting!

In the 90's I had a game development company in Sweden and some of the
artists preferred working on Amiga. Electronic Arts England sent me some
decommissioned Amigas. One A3000 and this one.

Then they went into a box for almost 20 years. They got shipped to
Canada with some other stuff some years ago and have been sitting in the
box at my cottage until the other week.

It turns out one is an Amiga 4000 pre-production model. One guy thinks
it's an A3400.

Perhaps you guys can shed more light on the matter. I'm willing to take
more pictures if needed.

There is some old dust, especially on the CPU board contact. It looks
nastier than it is.
