Currency Grading Guide
CRISP or CHOICE UNCIRCULATED, (UNC or CU)
o This means absolutely not the slightest sign of any handling or wear or folding or *anything*. A perfectly preserved note, never mishandled by the issuing authority, a bank teller, the public or a collector. The paper should be clean and firm, without discoloration. Corners are sharp and square, without any evidence of rounding. The note should also have its natural sheen.
ALMOST or ABOUT UNCIRCULATED, (AU)
o This means there is a slightly detectable imperfection such as a counting fold on one corner or slightest fold in the center (nothing which breaks the surface of the paper). May show evidence of bank counting folds at a corner or one light fold through the center, but not both. Paper is clean and bright with the original sheen. Corners are not rounded.
VERY FINE, (VF)
o Very attractive note, but with more evidence of handling and wear. May have a number of folds both vertically and horizontally. Paper may have minimal dirt, or possible color smudging. Paper itself is relatively crisp and not floppy. There are no tears into the border area, although the edges do show slight wear. Corners also show wear but not full rounding.
FINE, (F)
o A note which shows considerable circulation, with many folds, creases and wrinkling. Paper is not excessively dirty but may have some softness. Edges may show much handling, with minor tears in the border area. Tears may not extend into the design. There will be no center hole because of excessive folding. Colors are clear but not very bright. A staple hole or two would not be considered unusual wear in a Fine note. Overall appearance is still on the desirable side.
VERY GOOD, (VG)
o A well-used note, abused but still intact. Corners may have much wear and rounding, tiny nicks, tears may extend into the design, some discoloration may be present, staining may have occurred, and a small hole may be seen at center from excessive folding. Staple and pinholes are usually present, and the note itself is quite limp but no pieces of the note are missing. A note is VG condition may still have an overall unattractive appearance.
GOOD, (G)
o A well-worn and heavily-used note. Normal damage from prolonged circulation will include strong multiple folds and creases, stains, pinholes and/or staple holes, dirt, discoloration, edge tears, center hole, rounded corners and an overall unattractive appearance. No large pieces of the note may be missing. Graffiti is commonly seen on notes in G condition.
POOR, (P)
o A "rag" with severe damage because of wear, staining, pieces missing, graffiti, larger holes. May have tape holding pieces of the note together. Trimming may have taken place to remove rough/edges.
