No. A barter economy is less efficient than the current system. A barter system relies on individuals having a double coincidence of wants where each person wants the exact opposite thing that someone else is willing to sell at that particular time. So, people who needed certain things that weren't on the market were out of luck.
Also, the barter economy has a flaw in the indivisibility of products. This means certain large expensive items such as tractors were not able to be divided equally to make necessary exchanges for smaller ticket items.
The present money economy makes trade more efficient.
It is an economy where people use currency rather than barter to buy and sell goods.
an economic system based on exchanging goods instead of money.

Barter system
The problem with this is that reason is subjective. So whatever answer you get for this may change. And my answer is purely what I think should occur, but it may not be realistic: I would think barter is is a good monetary policy for an economy in a recession, as well as heavy taxation of the rich (25% and over), because the problem with selling things in a recession is that people may or may not have the money for what you're offering, but they want it. So they can barter with you for it. You can in turn trade in these goods to a bank for money. It's a merger between barter and actual money.

Simply, the barter system was common because the concept of money had not yet been invented. In a world without money, there are only two ways to acquire resources: (1) expend your own energy to find them or fashion them into something useful or (2) trade what you have for what someone else has. The second choice was far better since it allowed people to make large quantities of a single resource and exchange it for other things that person needed.As soon as money comes onto the scene, the economy shifts away from barter and towards moneyed transactions. Almost no monetary economy has a large barter sector.
