I use a globally accepted grading policy, and try to be as accurate as possible:
The VJM Record Grading System.
N (78) M (LP). As new and unplayed (there are
virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).
N- (78) M- (LP). Nearly Mint, but has been
played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+ (78) VG+ (LP). Plays like new, with very,
very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out
of jackets.
E (78) VG (LP). Still very shiny, near new
looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs
and scratches.
E- (78) VG- (LP). Still shiny but without the lustre
of a new record, few light scratches. LP: Some wear,
scratches and scuffs, but no skipped or repeat grooves.
V+ (78) G+ LP. V+ is 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. LP: Below average with scuffs and scratches on
fewer than half the tracks. No skips or repeat grooves.
V (78) G (LP). Moderate, even wear throughout, but
still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V- (78) G- (LP). 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. LP: Lowest
Grade. Audible scratches, etc. on more than half the tracks. Listening
uncomfortable.
G+ (78). Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music
begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G (78). Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music
level is still higher than surface noise.
G- (78). Music still prominent, but wear and scatch
damage extensive.
F (78). Most of music remains audible over surface
noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
P (78). Unplayable.
