A clean, fresh card.
NEAR MINT - Like Mint but with very light aging or very slight discoloration from being in an album for many years.
Not as sharp or crisp.
EXCELLENT - Like near mint in appearance but may have one small defect such as an almost undetectable bend, crease or slightly blunted corner tips, etc. May have writing and postmark only on the address side.
VERY GOOD - May have one or two minor defects such as a light crease, bend, blunted or rounded corners, a small amount of postal ink or writing to front that does not detract from the image. May have writing or postal use on the address side.
GOOD - Corners may be blunt or rounded with noticeable bends or creases. May have soiling to picture side that detracts from the picture. May have heavy postal ink and/or writing to picture side of card that detracts from the picture.
May have writing or postal use to address side of card. Card may have a small tear or chipped corner.
