I gave this record VG+/ EX because it has a couple of very light marks. and I stick to "Goldmine" standards, I test played this record and it plays EXcellent or better. Nice and quiet. Cover is also EXcellent! Sharp corners,beautiful edges and ";readable" spine. (rare) No B.D. on cover, Nice and frame-able. Spindle holes nice and clean. No writing, splits, saw marks, holes, stains. Very clean! This is a Super copy!
