Question:

I have a coin. I would like to find out information on it. it is VICTORIA D:G: BRITT: REG:F:D:1874?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I can tell you that it's a coin from Great Britain, issued under the reign of Queen Victoria. On your coin, the legend means :
VICTORIA(the Queen) D:G:(Dei Gratia, By the Grace of God) BRITT:(Britannia) REG:(Regina, Queen) F:D:(Fidei Defensor)1874(the date of coin). As for the value, I wouldn't be able to tell without knowing what denomination of coin you have there. Could be a 1/2 penny or penny, or any of the silver Victorian issues. What you can do, perhaps, is to visit this site ( http://www.tclayton.demon.co.uk/coins.ht... ) and discover more about Queen Victoria coins and their estimated values. Good luck.
