Slight Edge Wear, Upper/Lower Left Corner Creasing W/Color Break, Moderate Spine Stress, Slight Staple Tears, Discolored Staples, Slight Tear Right Outer Edge, Staining on the Outer Edge of the Rear Cover.

IMO...

FN 6.0 - FN+ 6.5

6.5 FINE+ (FN+):  Back to Top
Fits the criteria for Fine but with an additional virtue or small accumulation of virtues that improves the book's appearance by a perceptible amount.

6.0 FINE (FN):  Back to Top
An above-average copy that shows minor wear but is still relatively flat and clean with no significant creasing or other serious defects. Some accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Minor cover wear apparent, with minor to moderate creases. Inks show a significant reduction in reflectivity. Blunted corners are more common, as is minor staining, soiling, discoloration, and/or foxing. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. A minor spine roll is allowed. There can also be a 1/4" spine split or severe color break. Staples may show minor discoloration. Minor staple tears and a few slight stress lines may be present, as well as minor rust migration. Paper is tan to brown and fairly supple with no signs of brittleness. Minor interior tears at the margin may be present. Centerfold may be loose.

I'm good with a 6.0. Dust shadow and a wee bit of staining in that area on the back keeps it down for me.
