AU-50, AU-55 and AU-58 Extremely Fine (XF or EF) - Very light wear on only the highest points. XF-40 and XF-45 Very Fine (VF) - Light to medium wear. All major features are sharp. VF-20, VF-25, VF-30 and occasionally VF-35 Fine (F) - Moderate to heavy even wear. Entire design clear and bold.F-12 Very Good (VG) - Well worn. Design clear, but flat and lacking details.VG-8 Good (G) - Heavily worn. Design and legend visible but faint in spots. Almost Good (AG) - Outlined design. Parts of date and legend worn smooth. Fair (Fair) - You can identify the coin as to its type. Basal State (Basal) - You can identify the lump of metal as being a coin.[/QUOTE]
