Goldmine Record Grading
This record and sleeve were graded using the Goldmine Record Grading Guide standard. Unless play-testing is specifically stated elsewhere in this listing, the grades are visual grades based on the photos. Visual grading cannot guarantee exact playback performance.
Record: Very Good (VG)
What to expect: Very Good shows more obvious use, such as visible groove wear or light scratches. Goldmine allows audible surface noise at this grade, although this listing is visually graded unless play-testing is specifically stated.
Why this copy received this grade: Very Good (VG) based on the overall visible condition in the record photos and seller-provided condition-map evidence: Side 1 has approximately 29 seller-observed scuffs and Side 2 has approximately 28 seller-observed scuffs. The photos show retained surface sheen with visible scattered surface wear; no playback assessment is made.
Sleeve: Good (G)
What to expect: A Good sleeve is heavily worn and may show substantial ring wear, seam damage, writing, staining or other major handling wear.
Why this copy received this grade: Good (G) due to clearly visible heavy wear along the bottom edge, including substantial abrasion/loss, plus edge and corner wear on the front and back cover. The cover also has visible general handling wear and a $2.00 price sticker on the front.
