vvg - Very very good: An intermediate grade between very good and excellent. This is a grade that not many plate collectors use. I use it to mean "almost excellent". It is a plate, either used or unissued, which has very minor scuffs, scratches or rub marks. Still has nice gloss. Stickers, if any, are not damaged. Could almost be graded as excellent.

The two vertical creases in the middle of the plate (on either side of the shield) are from the manufacturing process and do not affect the condition of the plate.
