If you have an I-Phone or Android phone, I would recommend going to the Apple App Store or the Google Play store and downloading/installing the NGC App. Most Smart phones have forward facing cameras that will automatically scan the barcode for you, once you open the Application and Click on Verify NGC Certification. It will bring up information that is specific to your coin. ie. Year, Mint and if applicable, NGC price guide value. I find it extremely informative to give me quick information on a scanned slab. The PCGS Application is very similar.
