Market Acceptable: Obvious Cleaning

Crusty Original: Ugly toning

Rich Toning: Dark toning

Commensurate with the grade: Baggy or obvious marks

Great Type Set Addition (or sometimes 'Perfect for the Type'): Common coin (Often coins have problems)

'Mentioned Only For Accuracy': Obvious gouges

Choice CAC graded: A coin I purchase at wholesale prices which allows me to sell for over 20% retail.

PCGS OGH: (See Choice CAC graded above)

Typical Strike: Weakly struck

I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting at the moment.
