GRADING ON RECORD (GOLDMINE GRADING GUIDE FOR 1950’s TO CURRENT.  GRADING FOR 78 RPM RECORDS ARE INCREASED BY ONE POINT.

MINT (M) LIKE NEW, ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY – RARELY SEEN. 

NEAR MINT (NM)   NEARLY PERFECT (LOOKS LIKE IT CAME FROM A RETAIL STORE AND OPENED FOR THE FIRST TIME).

(NM) RECORDS SHINY, WITH NO VISIBLE DEFECTS, WRITING, STICKERS, OR OTHER MARKINGS CANNOT APPEAR ON LABEL, NOR CAN ANY “SPINDLE MARKS” FROM SOMEONE TRYING TO BLINDLY PUT THE RECORD ON THE TURNTABLE. MAJOR FACTORY DEFECTS ALSO MUST NOT BE PRESENT; A RECORD AND LABEL OBVIOUSLY PRESSED OFF CENTER IS NOT NEAR MINT.  IF PLAYED, IT WILL DO SO WITH NO SURFACE NOISE. IT DOES NOT NECESSARY MEAN IT WAS NEVER PLAYED.  IF PLAYED SEVERAL TIMES ON AN EXCELLENT TURNTABLE, THE RECORD CAN REMAIN NEAR MINT.

(NM) COVER NO CREASES, RING WEAR OR SEAM SPLITS OF ANY KIND.

(VG+) RECORDS MAY SHOW SOME SLIGHT SIGNS OF WEAR, INCLUDING LIGHT SCUFFS OR VERY LIGHT SCRATCHES THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE LISTENING EXPERIENCE.  SLIGHT WARPS THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE SOUND ARE OK. MINOR SIGNS OF HANDLING SUCH AS TELLTALE MARKS AROUND THE CENTER HOLE, BUT REPEATED PLAYING HAS NOT MISSHAPEN THE HOLE. VERY LIGHT RING WEAR OR SLIGHT DISCOLORATION, BUT IT SHOULD BE BARELY NOTICEABLE.

(VG+) COVER SHOULD HAVE ONLY MINOR WEAR. MIGHT HAVE SOME VERY FINE SEAM WEAR OR A SPLIT (LESS THAN ONE INCH LONG), SOME DEFACING, SUCH AS A CUT-OUT MARKING. COVERS WITH CUT-OUT MARKINGS CAN NEVER BE CONSIDERED NEAR MINT.

VERY GOOD (VG) FOR MANY LISTENERS, VG RECORDS OR SLEEVES WILL BE WORTH THE MONEY. 

(VG) RECORDS HAVE MORE OBVIOUS FLAWS THAN THEIR COUNTER PARTS IN BETTER SHAPE.  LACK MORE OF THE ORIGINAL GLOSS FOUND ON FACTORY-FRESH RECORDS. GROOVE WEAR IS EVIDENT ON SIGHT, AS ARE LIGHT SCRATCHES DEEP ENOUGH TO FEEL WITH A FINGERNAIL.  WHEN PLAYED, A VG RECORD HAS SURFACE NOISE, AND SOME SCRATCHES MAY BE AUDIBLE, ESPECIALLY IN SOFT PASSAGES AND DURING A SONG’S INTRO AND ENDING. BUT, THE NOISE SHOULD NOT OVER POWER THE MUSIC. MINOR WRITING, TAPE OR A STICKER CAN DETRACT FROM THE LABEL. VG RECORDS ARE GREAT FOR JUKEBOXES AND OFFER A FINE LISTENING EXPERIENCE.

(VG) COVERS WILL HAVE MANY SIGNS OF HUMAN HANDLING. RING WEAR IN THE MIDDLE OR ALONG THE EDGES OF THE COVER WHERE THE EDGE OF A RECORDS WOULD RESIDE THOUGH NOT OVERWHELMING.  MORE CREASES MIGHT BE VISIBLE. SEAM SPLITTING WILL BE MORE OBVIOUS AND MAY APPEAR ON ALL THREE SIDES THOUGH IT WOULDN’T BE OBVIOUS UPON LOOKING.  SOMEONE MIGHT HAVE WRITTEN ON IT OR STAMPED A PRICE TAG ON IT. 

LOWER GRADES – GOOD (G), GOOD PLUS (G+) OR VERY GOOD MINUS (VG-)

(G TO VG-) RECORDS GOOD DOES NOT MEAN BAD!!!!  THE RECORD STILL PLAYS THOUGHT WITHOUT SKIPPING – GREAT SERVED AS A FILLER UNTIL SOMETHING BETTER COMES ALONG.  HAS SIGNIFICANT SURFACE NOISE AND GROOVE WEAR AND THE LABEL IS WORN WITH SIGNIFICANT RING WEAR, HEAVY WRITING, OR OBVIOUS DAMAGE CAUSED BY SOMEONE WHO FAILED MISERABLY TRYING TO REMOVE TAPES OR STICKERS. 

(G TO VG-) COVERS HAVE A RING TO THE POINT OF DISTRACTION, HAVE SEAM SPLITS OBVIOUS ON SIGHT AND MAY EVEN HAVE HEAVIER WRITING SUCH AS HUGE RADIO STATION LETTERS WRITTEN ACROSS THE FRONT TO DETER THEFT.
