78 Record Grading System

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  = Shiny, a nearly new looking record, with a few light inaudible scratches or scuffs.

E- = Still shiny but without the luster of a new record. Some wear, scratches and scuffs.

V+ = Average condition. Scuffs and general use have dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Typical 78 Surface noise is not overly pronounced.

V = Moderate and even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches are audible but not intrusive.

V- = Quite  playable still, but distortion and heavy graying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches remains well below the 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 the surface noise.

G- = Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.
