you can use
   gprint,basis
which will tell you exactly which GTO coefficients and contractions are used.

When comparing results to other programs, different angular function bases are 
a common cause of confusion. You can switch them using 
"cartesian"/"spherical" commands, respectively (AVQZ should be used with 
spherical functions, which is the default).
