The cover is graded first then the record.

 

I may sometimes use + or - in addition for a more accurate description.

RECORD: Sealed

MT = Mint: Never been played or item still sealed. Cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster (ie contents) are in perfect condition.

MT- = Near Mint: In brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. Cover and contents are nearly perfect.

EX = Excellent: Shows some signs of being played but there is very little lessening in sound quality. Cover and contents might have slight wear and/or creasing.
