What the condition words mean
We grade by eye at the table, in plain words. If you're unsure, ask, and we'll send a closer photo. Selling rather than buying? Here's how a sale works.
- Good
- Heavily worn, with the main design and the date still clear enough to read.
- Fine
- Clearly spent and handled, the high points worn smooth but every part of the design in place.
- Very fine
- Light wear on the highest points only, with most of the fine detail still crisp.
- Uncirculated
- Never spent and never worn, often with some of its original mint lustre.
- Circulated
- Used in everyday change, so expect soft corners or folds on notes, but nothing torn or missing.
