Question Eibach Experts, need your help

How would you know/check the spring rate of an eibach/ground control springs?
I thought the last 4 digits states that, but when i recived a new set, this is what's written on the springs.

GC200.64.77

???? so i don't think the spring rate would be 77lbs...
and i did try to do a search online about it (no luck, or just didn't know where to look)
TIA

It's Length/ID/Spring rate. Usually measured in inch/inch/lb-ft or mm/mm/kg-mm. Yours could be 200mm (7.87in) 64mm (2.5in) and 7.7kg/mm
