The summer (June) issue of the Barber Coin Collectors' Society Journal will have a new article that I have written specifically for the society.  It is an update from the article that appeared in Coin Values magazine 11-years ago.

Information about the article and about the Barber Coin Collectors' Society may be found in the link on this page.

New Barber Half Dollar Article for Barber Coin Collectors' Society

It has been about 11-years since my last comprehensive article on Barber half dollars appeared in Coin Values magazine.  Since then, quite a bit has changed and I have been asked to write an updated article based upon the Barber half dollar that exists today.  The newest article will appear in the Barber Coin Collectors' Society Journal and is scheduled to be in the summer (June) edition of the journal.  After it has been mailed out to BCCS members, I will place the article in its entirety on my site.

Those interested in the BCCS may find their website linked below-
