This was the first coin I ever purchased online, but since I don't collect IHC's it was more of an impulse buy. I just liked the look of it (and could afford it), but the CCF community knows more about IHC's than I do

IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

I looked up the barcode for the first time. The coin was graded a little higher than I expected by PCGS. first, I made a copy of the barcode and saved to file.
Second, Found a barcode reader site online and entered the barcode.
Third, The online site produced a 16 digit number.
Forth, Went to PCGS for code of the 16 numbers.
Fifth, The last 8 numbers were the cert number and verified the cert number and grade on the PCGS site.

@slider23 I have done that in the past. Not to cheat, of course, I didn't guess after, just to see if it could be done.

Thank you for everyone's contributions! PCGS graded it VF-30. The details are actually sharper in hand than the first set of photos, which I tried to show in the second set. The close-ups were the original seller photos, but they were still better than I could photograph myself. Thanks again!
