Grading System ;
(used by Tim Hunter;from his book & John Brey; Nodderexchange): "Gem" - Beautiful, bright, shiny, out of the box colors. Any Nodder that is labeled "Gem" is special. Because not all "Gem" nodders are perfect, we will combine the gem logo with the following grades: Mint - No flaws, unless minor factory problems such as minor paint overruns or minor factory paint problems or bumps. A "Mint" doll is one that has no flaws, but not the eye appeal of a "Gem Mint" doll. NrMt/Mt - Possibly one or two minor flaws, usually in a spot that doesn't detract from its appearence at first glance. A NrMt/Mt doll is almost perfect. NrMt - Most "nice dolls" fall into this category. A NrMt doll could have a couple hairlines in back or side or a minor problem in the front that doesn't detract from its overall apperance. Some peoples "Nr Mt" is anothers VG. Ex - An "average doll" with no major problems. Great for display if not investment. Often times paint chips on high points. Maximum of 3-4 small flaws such as hairline cracks, micro paint chips & etc. Or 1 or 2 larger flaws such as a larger crack or paint chip. NO MISSING PIECES! VG - Assorted problems. Not an investment grade bobber but often nice enough for display. Pieces missing up to 1". Many flaws.
