GRADING SCALE:  I use VJM grading for 78s.

N:  As new and unplayed

N-: Nearly Mint, but has been played.  No visible signs of wear or damage

E+: Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.

E: Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.

E-: Still shiny but without the luster of a new record, few light scratches.

V+: 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.

V: Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable.  Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

V-: 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.

G+: Grey throughout but still serviceable.  Music begins to sound muffled.  Heavy scratches.

G: Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G-: Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive

F: Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.

P: Unplayable
