Standard 78 rpm Grading System:
N- = like new (a grade rarely given)
E+ = a virtually perfect copy with only minor signs of having been played
E = very slight signs of wear, maybe some minor scuffing and/or light scratches but a clean copy with little groove wear
E- = slightly above average copy, some groove wear and minor blemishes but a very decent copy
V+ = an average copy, signs of use, some groove wear but still a decent copy. Music overrides surface noise noticeably.
V = wear, scuffing, light scratches but a very playable copy
V- getting scary!...will play but is quite worn.
G+ = a playable copy but very very worn
G plays through. Not really a pleasurable listening experience.
G- = wall hanger
P = once might have been a phonograph record.
