今天和廣東的陳曉宇陳總聊天，突然有一種想要翻譯PMG評分標準的沖動。本人接觸紙幣不到半年，有很多不對的地方，希望大家指正批評。時間很趕，水平有限。
70--The highest grade assigned. Notes have 50/50 margins and registration, and no handling.
70分--最高分。四邊5/5分，完全居中，正反面完全對齊。 沒有觸碰過。（根據PMG在下面的解釋，registration是正反面對齊的意思。 Handling的意思是非常微不足道的問題，不是折痕，可能是數錢時留下的印記，皺紋或者輕微的彎曲）
69--- This note may be nearly visually indistinguishable from a 70; however, margins or registration just minutely off. No handling.
69分---這個分數在視覺上和70分幾乎沒有區別。然而，在四邊，居中，正反圖片對齊上有極其微小的（minutely）偏差。沒有被觸碰過。
68--Margins or registration are off slightly to the naked eye. No significant handling.
68分—用肉眼看四邊和正反圖像有輕微（Slightly）偏差，沒有較大的觸摸，彎曲或皺紋等。
67--Great color and eye appeal. A well-centered original note. May have very minor handling.
67分---顏色很正，看起來很漂亮。很好的圖像居中的原票。（original note,根據PMG的下面的解釋，意思是紙質就是當初發行時候的樣子，沒有經過流通。字面意思是原票，姑且翻譯為原票，原票很難有準確的定義，竊以為翻譯成原票比較合適）。可能有很輕微的觸摸，彎曲或皺紋等
66--Above average original note held back from superb quality due to handling and / or margins and registration.
66分—比多數原票品級要高，沒有得到更高分的原因是經過觸摸，有彎曲或者皺紋，或者不居中。
65--Strictly original note with great color and eye appeal. May have one or two minor distractions. Centering is above average.
65E—原票。也許有一兩個小問題。（沒有說明是什么問題）。居中比一般的紙幣都好。
64E---Original paper quality, but centering is off on one or two sides.
64E---沒有流通過，但是圖像不居中，偏向一邊或者兩邊。（一共有4邊，上下左右）
64--Note is well-centered and shows signs of alteration (for example, pressing or re-embossing, etc.). No folds in design.
64---居中非常好，但是有處理的痕跡。例如：被壓過，或者被重新壓印過（pressed or re-embossed。圖像中沒有折痕。（emboss的本意是浮雕，用在印刷品中，最早用于英國最早期的郵票。郵票上的圖案就像浮雕一樣印在郵票紙上。在紙幣中應該可以理解為凹印，或者凸印。如果是名詞embossing，則可以簡單地理解為凹凸感）
63E---Original but margins are “tight” on one or two sides. Good eye appeal.
63E---沒有流通過。但是一邊或者兩邊太“緊”。（意思應該是嚴重不居中）。能吸引眼球（很美）
63--Imperfect centering. No folds in design. May be flat and have a flaw or two.
63---不完美的居中。沒折。可能很平（太沒有凹凸感？），有一個或者兩個瑕疵。
62---Strictly uncirculated note that lacks some eye appeal. May have “tight” margins, handling or corner tip issues
62—剛好夠沒有經過流通紙幣的標準。不漂亮。可能不居中，經過觸摸，彎曲或者有皺紋，或者有角的問題。
61---Usually poorly centered and margins are touching the design. May have counting marks, smudges, pinholes or other problems.
61—通常很不居中，圖像已經碰到邊了。可能有數錢時留下的痕跡，污跡，針孔（多見于大清寶鈔）等其它問題。
60---A note with problems that result in diminished eye appeal (i.e. toned paper, small stain, fading, etc.), but no folds through the design.
60---這個分數的紙幣有很多可能引起不悅目的問題。例如：紙淡化，小污跡，褪色等。但是在圖像中沒有折痕。
60分以上都是沒有流通過的紙幣。
58E--Premium grade note. May look like higher grade, but unfortunately, has a single vertical fold or one to two light corner folds.
58E—品級很好的流通幣。看起來可以得更高的分。但是不幸的是有一個垂直（豎的）的折痕，或者兩個角邊的折痕。
58--Often a note with a single fold that has been pressed or re-embossed to hide the fold.
58—通常情況下一張紙幣會有折痕，而且經過壓和重壓印來掩蓋折痕。
55E---Two light vertical folds or a single fold with handling, but a nice original note.
55E—有兩個很小的垂直的折痕，經過觸摸，有皺紋或者彎曲，但是是很好的原票。（original note, 這是最難翻譯的部分，這個詞出現過很多次，但是在每個地方所包含的含義都不一樣，姑且翻譯成原票）
55--This grade is commonly assigned to a note with one or two folds that has been pressed. Note may have been re-embossed.
55-這個分數的紙幣一般會有一兩個折痕，被壓過。可能也被重壓印過。
45E---Usually a note with three light vertical folds that may look much higher grade, especially when note has little evidence of handling.
45E---一般情況下紙幣有3個垂直的折痕，也許看起來可以得更高的分，特別是當紙幣的處理痕跡很補明顯的時候。
還要特別翻譯一下NET的含義。Net是指在紙幣印刷出來后的缺陷，問題。不是紙幣印刷中的問題。如果是Net, PMG會在背面注明問題的所在。這些問題可能有：撕壞，缺角，重修，重壓印，洗，污跡，寫字等
還有，經常有人問剪殼后能不能保證得到同樣的分數。PMG官方的答案是：
Q. If a note is removed from its PMG holder and resubmitted, can I be assured of receiving the same grade?
A. No. Once removed from its PMG holder there is no guarantee whatsoever as to what that note will grade when resubmitted. This is due to the fact that we cannot account for where that note has been, what if anything has been done to it, and for the overall subjective nature of note grading itself. In addition, the grade of a note may be affected if improperly stored and handled while in the holder.
大意是：不是。不能保證。因為剪后紙幣的狀態也會改變，比如處理，比如保存不當。
