Welcome to the forum and you ask a good question. G4 stands for Good and the number is the grade numeric value. You can have G4, G5 or G6, G7, but then for an 8 you go up a grade to VG8 which is VG8.

AU means almost uncirulated and they can be AU50-AU59, and MS means mint state and they can have a number grade from MS60-MS70. Here's a link that explains this more http://coinauctionshelp.com/Coin_Grading_Guide.html

Here's a page with images so you can compare what each grade looks like http://coinauctionshelp.com/US_Coin_Grading_Guides.html
