Excellent point! If someone were unfamiliar with anything hobby related and they read the typical grading standards published by any of the major grading companies, they might envision a NM-MT or NM card as one that possessed a fair amount of wear. On the other hand, if this same person were presented with an actual NM condition card, they might easily consider it to be in perfect condition. Not that long ago, Beckett used to publish pictures that matched different amounts of corner wear with different grades. I think a similar guide today, published by any of the major grading companies, would be extremely useful.
