1937 50c Roanoke Island AU55
Greysheet & CPG® PRICE GUIDE
Honoring the arrival of Virginia's first settlers and the birth of Virginia Dare, the 1937 Roanoke half dollar is a popular commemorative coin. Designed by William Marks Simpson, the Roanoke half dollar was originally sold for $1.65, but about only three-fifths of the 50,000 struck were sold, leaving more than 20,000 to return to the United States Mint. The 1937 Roanoke half dollar is relatively common in uncirculated grades up through MS66, with MS67s encountered with frequency in the marketplace. However, the coin becomes quite rare in grades of MS68 or higher. Most of the available pieces exhibit terrific surfaces and frosty luster.

All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.
CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.
Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.
Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.
CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.
