Not overly familiar with this product line or colored pencils in general. At least not yet.

Looking at their homesite it would seem that they have school, artist, office and hobby sections for their products. So maybe that might be what the codes are for?

I have this particular set myself: [link]

Tbh I'm not a huge fan of these pencils. They don't seem to mix hardly at all. When I water down the first layer and then color on top of that dry they seem to work OK but blending different colors and shades is somewhat difficult because the pens are somewhat hard and not waxy enough. Maybe the fault lies within the person using them but I still ordered a set of Faber Castell's myself to get better quality pencils.

Usually high quality will be softer, more pigmented, and easier to blend.

I think he's asking about the difference between the number models, not what entails a high quality pencil.
