If you want to check the bar code (which the Chinese always get wrong) use this site. Go to "advanced options", set width 400, height 70, bar width pixel 2, the biggest font, and choose "interleaved 2 of 5" for symbology.
Then enter 3 lead zeros (not used by PCGS),
The 6 digit PCGS coin number (pad with lead zeroes if it's shorter than 6)
Two more zeroes (not used by PCGS)
The two digit grade
Another zero (not used by PCGS)
The 8-digit cert# (pad with lead zeroes if less than 8).
Here's more detail on PCGS's code.
So for this one enter 0000068930035021935223 and you will get the proper bar code below.

Perhaps. I've never seen one. But anything's possible.

good bar code info lkeigwin
old thread
Listing has been pulled now.... But when the cert will not come up, that is a prime indicator of a problem... Usually not with PCGS. Cheers, RickO
.
it's an ancient thread. i was looking for lkeigwin's bar code break-down threads and there are a few (chose this one as it is good enough and was one of the first i came across) to show newcomers and/or those that missed/forgot just how much priceless information is buried in these old threads including many posts that are prize-winning worthy.
