EF --> All the details in the wreath of Elizabeth II are visible. Lots of details are present in the hair of Elizabeth II. Only trace of wear above the eye and on the cheek of Elizabeth II are visible. Almost all the details in the images of the reverse are visible.
AU --> All the details in the hair are clear. Only small trace of wear on the side of the cheek and above the eye of Elizabeth II are visible. All the details in the images of the reverse are visible.
MS --> An almost perfect coin, only small marks due to transport are visible.
Notes: All the scratches must be consider, if the coin has been bent, it must be also consider and all rim knicks must also be consider. If one side of the coin is more used than the other, the lowest grade is the grade of the coin, (Ex.: if the reverse is Fine (F) and the obverse is Very Fine (VF) the coin grade Fine (F)).
