Value Assessment Dimensions of Dried Abalone
| Evaluation Project | Professional Standards Explanation | Impact on recycling prices |
| Variety Source | The highest quality comes from Japanese regions (such as Iwate and Aomori prefectures), followed by South Africa and the Middle East. | Key impact : Japanese dried abalone has the greatest potential for appreciation. |
| Head size | This refers to the number of abalones contained in one jin (approximately 604.8 grams). The smaller the number of abalones, the larger the volume. | Significant impact : For example, 2-head and 4-head abalone are considered top-grade, and their unit price is much higher than that of small-head abalone. |
| Dryness | The abalone should be dry and firm, without any dampness or stickiness. | Direct impact : Fully dried abalone is easier to preserve and fetches a higher buyback price. |
| Color and Soft Core | The ideal color is deep golden yellow or amber, and it is best if it appears translucent and has a "soft center" when viewed against the light. | Quality indicator : The soft center effect is the soul of top-grade dried abalone. |
| Completeness | The skirt hem is intact, free from insect damage, chipped corners, and obvious cracks. | Appearance indicators : The more perfect the appearance, the higher the collectible value. |
| Year Scent | Aged abalone should have a unique, rich aroma, without any musty or fishy odor. | Value based on age : The longer it is aged, the higher its medicinal and edible value. |
