Grading Sports Cards
These are the grading standards that we use and follow!
- Mint (MT) -- A
card with four sharp corners, 50/50 centering, no imperfections or signs
of wear. Even cards straight out of the pack do not always grade mint.
Pre-1970 MT cards typically sell at 150 percent or more of the NM price.
*We don't list cards in this grade*
- Near Mint -
Mint - (NrMt-Mt) - A card with one minor flaw. Any one of the following
would lower a Mint card to Near Mint-Mint: one corner with a slight touch
of wear, barely noticeable print spots, color or focus imperfections. The
card must have 60/40 or better centering in both directions, original
gloss, smooth edges and original color borders.
- Near Mint (NM)
-- A near-perfect card with perhaps one minor imperfection, such as one
blunt corner. Centering is no worse than 60/40 and the card must have its
original gloss. NM cards are the standard by which other grades are
usually gauged. Example: MT cards bring 150 percent of book.
- Excellent-Mint
(EX-MT) -- A card with only two or three minor imperfections. Must have
original gloss and centering no worse than 70/30. EX-MT cards typically
sell for 75 to 90 percent of the NM price.
- Excellent (EX)
-- A card with a few minor imperfections. Some original gloss is lost and
the edges show moderate wear. All four corners typically show some wear.
Centering is no worse than 75/25. EX cards usually sell for 50 percent to
75 percent of the NM price.
- Very Good (VG)
-- A card that shows obvious handling but is still attractive despite wear
and imperfections. A VG card may have a crease, but one that's not severe
enough to make the card unattractive. Most of the original gloss is lost.
VG cards usually sell for 25 percent to 35 percent of the NM price.
- Good (G), Fair
(F), Poor (P) -- A very worn card with many major imperfections.
Collectors use cards of these grades as fillers until better ones can be
found. With very little market for such cards, they are valued at 5
percent to 10 percent of the NM price.
Creases and major defects if present are mentioned in the description or
title of the item for sale or bid.
