I use the VJM grading system for 78 RPM records:       

     
  • N. As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed). 
  • N-. Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage. 
  • E+. Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. 
  • E . Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches. 
  • E-. Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. 
  • V+. An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced 
  • V. Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive. 
  • V-. Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. 
  • G+. Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches. 
  • G. Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise. 
  • G-. Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive. 
  • F. Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable. 
  • P. Unplayable.
