Raspberry Pi Model B. About 3 versions from the beginning, as it doesn't have any remaining sign of the USB current limiting polyfuses.

(Hint for better photos...don't backlight your subject.)

Pi 1B Rev 2.

It has the holes for an additional 8 pin GPIO connector, which the original Pi 1B didn't have. Also there are no USB polyfuses.

Still running Raspbian Jessie or Stretch on some older Pi's (an A, B1, 2xB2, B+, P2B, 3xP0, P0W, 2xP3A+, P3B+, P3B, B+, and a A+) but Buster on the P4B's. See: https://www.cpmspectrepi.uk/raspberry_pi/raspiidx.htm
