NM - Near Mint. This record shows virtually no marks and substantially looks as though it were just purchased new from a record store. Excellent sound quality.
EXCELLENT: EX+ The record shows few signs of having been played with very little lessening in sound quality.
EX- will have an excellent sheen and show only minor signs of a scuffed playing surface but with few marks.
VG+ This rating usually indicates a still shiny 78rpm with some surface marks, lines and evidence of having been played.
VERY GOOD: VG A VG or very good record has obviously been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.
Many 78s are found in this condition. Those that sound pleasant enough, albeit with the usual background hiss and a bit of sound deterioration, can be graded VG. Those which are still just about listenable but tough on the ears should be graded VG-.
As a buyer, avoid anything VG- or below unless it is a real rarity which you must have in any condition.
