Virtually full luster.įull detail, with light friction on the high points. Only the slightest friction on the highest points. May be poorly struck with many heavy marks or hairlines. Multiple heavy marks or hairlines allowed. No wear, with average or below average strike. Well struck with a few marks or hairlines, not in focal areas.Ībove average strike with minor marks or hairlines, mostly out of focal areas.Īverage or better strike with scattered marks or hairlines, though none severe.Īverage or slightly weak strike with moderate marks or hairlines. Very well struck with minor imperfections visible without magnification. Only the slightest weakness in strike with a few tiny imperfections barely visible. Virtually fully struck with minuscule imperfections visible upon close inspection. The PCGS 70 grading standard does allow for “as minted” defects, as long as those flaws are minor and do not impact the eye appeal of the coin.

The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion is also the preferred method to assess intensity among those individuals who take medications that affect heart rate or pulse.Fully struck and lustrous, free of visual marks. Note that this calculation is only an approximation of heart rate, and the actual heart rate can vary quite a bit depending on age and physical condition. For example, if a person’s rating of perceived exertion (RPE) is 12, then 12 x 10 = 120 so the heart rate should be approximately 120 beats per minute. *A high correlation exists between a person’s perceived exertion rating times 10 and the actual heart rate during physical activity so a person’s exertion rating may provide a fairly good estimate of the actual heart rate during activity (Borg, 1998).

On the other hand, if he felt his exertion was “extremely hard” (19 on the Borg Scale), he would need to slow down his movements to achieve the moderate-intensity range. If he describes his muscle fatigue and breathing as “very light” (9 on the Borg Scale), he would want to increase his intensity. For example, a walker who wants to engage in moderate-intensity activity would aim for a Borg Scale level of “somewhat hard” (12-14). Through experience of monitoring how your body feels, it will become easier to know when to adjust your intensity. Self-monitoring how hard your body is working can help you adjust the intensity of the activity by speeding up or slowing down your movements. During activity, use the Borg Scale to assign numbers to how you feel (see instructions below). Practitioners generally agree that perceived exertion ratings between 12 to 14 on the Borg Scale suggests that physical activity is being performed at a moderate level of intensity. These include a rating of 6 perceiving “no exertion at all” to 20 perceiving a “maximal exertion” of effort. Although this is a subjective measure, your exertion rating based on a 6 to 20 rating scale, may provide a fairly good estimate of your actual heart rate during physical activity* (Borg, 1998).Īs you exercise you can rate your perceived exertion using several anchors. It is based on the physical sensations a person experiences during physical activity, including increased heart rate, increased respiration or breathing rate, increased sweating, and muscle fatigue. Perceived exertion is how hard you feel like your body is working. The Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) is a way of measuring physical activity intensity level.
