This PIN is your SIM-PIN equal to that one you use for your mobile phone. 
Without PIN everyone can take your SIM-card, put it into his/her phone and 
use it. It may even be possible that one can use it to make phone calls.

After you enter 3 false PINs your card gets locked and you have to unlock it 
by a super-PIN.

So, if you decide to use your card without PIN and loose it. The finder will 
be overjoyed to get a PIN-less SIM and use it on your cost.
