TREASURE AUCTIONS
SPECIAL ABBREVIATIONS FOR BOOK LISTINGS
This
auction contains several book listings, which require data that are
customarily abbreviated, as follows:
HC
= hard cover
SC
= soft cover
DJ
= dust jacket
illus
= illustrated
ed.
= edition
pp
= pages
PR
= Prices Realized (auction results)
XL
= ex-library (with stampings and/or card-holders pasted in)
Also
we have not assigned grades to the books, which should all be assumed to
complete and in lightly used condition (most booksellers’ grade of
“Fine”) except where noted otherwise.
From best to worst, UNC is Uncirculated, AU is Almost Uncirculated, XF is Extra Fine, VF is Very Fine, F is Fine, VG is Very Good, and G is Good, with Fair and Poor below that. (“About” or “A” means the coin is just shy of the indicated grade. “Mint State” refers to lustrous, choice UNC coins.) We do not always assign numismatic grades to sea-salvage and land-burial coins, which were usually Uncirculated (or close to it) before the effects of corrosion and/or cleaning. Corrosion is usually assessed, from least to most, as follows: none, minimal, light, moderate, and heavy. Also note that we sometimes use the abbreviations E for escudos and R for reales in the listings for Spanish and Spanish colonial items.
