# 1937 Roanoke Commemorative Half Dollar. A stunning Gem Uncirculated example of this historically significant silver commemorative, beautifully preserved and graded PCGS MS-67. The 1937 Roanoke half dollar celebrates the first English settlement in the New World and the birth of Virginia Dare, the first English child born in the Americas.
