[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 525419, member: 4552"]Kind of a tuff question. The older Red Books had G, F, Unc and Proof. Back then that was all anyone cared about. And then they got real complicated with terminology like AG, EF, AU. AND for who knows someone really messed things up with a 70 point system. Now you can't even compare a UNC with all those MS-62,-63,-64, etc. My suggestion is to just use all G-x and VG-x as G for comparisons. Then All F-x, VF-x and EF-x as what used to be F.
