Welcome to the website for the Barber Coin Collectors' Society (BCCS).
The BCCS is a group of coin collectors that are interested in the coins designed by
Charles E. Barber, Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint from 1880 to 1917. He is best
known for his Liberty Head designs on the dime, quarter, and half, as well as the
popular Liberty Head (or "V") nickel.
The purpose of this site is to provide valuable information and knowledge about Barber coins,
details about the Society, and to make it easy for you to participate. Please explore the site,
meet with us at major coin shows, and accept our invitation to join.
