FR02 is about the second-lowest grade, where P01 is the lowest (a readable date and a discernable variety, but not much else in details). So the grades go P, FR, AG, G F, etc.
FR = Fair. The grades that are below Good are About Good (AG-3), Fair (FR-2), and Poor (PO-1).

Thanks to braddick, we have board experts on both extremes of the grading spectrum.

IMHO Fr 02 is much more of a legitimate grade than MS 61,62, 64, 66, 68, 69 and 70 all of which are phony marketing grades designed to relieve the gullible from large sums of cash.
