1. Poor (P): Coin is heavily worn and damaged, with barely any design details visible.
2. Fair (FR): Coin is very worn, with only the outline of the design visible. Major details are mostly gone.
3. About Good (AG): Coin is heavily worn, with the design and legend barely discernible.
4. Good (G): Coin is well-worn, but the design is clear enough to be identifiable. Major elements are outlined but lack detail.
5. Very Good (VG): Coin is worn, with major design elements visible but lacking detail. The legends are mostly readable.
6. Fine (F): Coin has moderate wear. The design is clear, but finer details are worn away. Legends and major features are readable and distinct.
7. Very Fine (VF): Coin shows light to moderate wear, with most details still visible. High points are slightly worn, but overall the coin is well-preserved.
8. Extremely Fine (EF or XF): Coin shows very light wear on the highest points. Most of the design is sharp and detailed. EF coins are well-preserved with minor wear.
9. About Uncirculated (AU): Coin has slight wear on the highest points, but it appears almost uncirculated. The majority of the design is crisp and well-defined.
10. Mint State (MS): Coin shows no signs of wear. It is in the same condition as when it was minted. MS coins are graded on a numerical scale from 60 to 70, with 70 being a perfect, flawless coin.
