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: Graded Very Good (VG) based on the visible record surface: both sides show numerous light scuffs/hairline scratches, with more noticeable scratch marks visible in the close-up. Labels are present and readable.
Sleeve: Very Good (VG)
What to expect: A Very Good sleeve shows obvious normal handling wear such as ring wear, creasing, edge wear, writing or seam wear, while remaining serviceable.
Why this copy received this grade: Graded Very Good (VG) based on visible edge and corner wear, light creasing, and minor discoloration/handling wear on the illustrated outer sleeve; no seam split is clearly visible in the photos.
