What is the significance of the "AF", "AH" and "AJ" at the end? I am guessing that the second letter denotes $5 increments -- A equals $5, B -- $10... F -- $30... J -- $50 and so on. Is that right? But what does the first letter stand for? Please let me know.

Good guess on the strike prices. It also wraps so $105 is A $110 is B ... etc.

The first letter indicates that it's a Jan Call(Jan 2001.) Jan-Dec calls are A thru L and Jan-Dec Puts are M thru X
