Best Answer

You are asking about a sixpence coin from Great Britain (KM# 903). The coin is 19.5mm in diameter and composed of Copper-Nickel. The obverse (front) of the coin has a portrait of Queen Elizabeth the Second and the words "Elizabeth II DEI GRATIA REGINA" (Latin for "Elizabeth the Second, By the Grace of God, Queen"). The reverse (back) has various flora (a leek, a rose, a thistle and a shamrock - symbols of the four componants of Great Britain: respectively, Wales, England, Scotland and [Northern] Ireland) and the words "FID DEF" (abbreviated Latin for "Defender of the Faith"), "SIX PENCE" (the denomination - equal to half a shilling or 1/40th of a Pound) and the date.

105,654,000 of these coins were produced in 1957, and according to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example is worth US$0.15 in Very Fine condition, US$0.35 in Extremely Fine condition, US$3.50 in Uncirculated condition, and US$500.00 in Proof.

All modern coins from Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and many commonwealth countries have that motto on them so it could apply to a penny or cent from any of them (depending of course on whether the country issued cents or pennies!)

Post a new, separate question with the coin's country of origin. If it doesn't have a country's name it's from Britain.

You are asking about a 6 Pence coin from Great Britain (KM#903). The coin is made of Copper-Nickel, measures 19.5mm in diameter, and has reeded edges. The front has a bust of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by the words "ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA" (Latin for "Elizabeth the Second, By the Grace of God, Queen"). The reverse has a leek, rose, thistle and shamrock (representing, respectively, Wales, England, Scotland and Ireland), the words "FID DEF" (abbreviated Latin for "Defender of the Faith") above, and "SIX PENCE - 1965" below. 129,644,000 such coins were produced for circulation in 1965. It is reported, but not confirmed, that some Proof examples were also produced.

The coin is an obsolete denomination, being part of the "Lsd" system (12 Pence to the Shilling, 20 Shillings to the Pound) that was replaced in 1968 by the Decimal system (100 Pence to the Pound). It is thus no longer in use. Theoretically, however, the face value is equivalent to 2.5 "decimal" pence, which in turn (as of April 4, 2012, with a British Pound equal to US$1.59) equates to about 4 US cents.

Numismatically, according to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example would be valued at US$0.10 in Very Fine condition, US$0.20 in Extremely Fine condition, and US$1.50 in Uncirculated condition.

About $1 if totally uncirculated. It is not silver and is the most common commemorative crown (5 shillings). It is a common coin with little collector demand.

Only a few cents. It contains no silver and is not a rare date.

You can buy them in dealer's junk trays for under 10 cents.

Please post a new question with the coin's date. As a rule of thumb, anything dated 1971 or later is worth only face value. Note that the phrase "Gratia Regina" is part of a longer Latin motto that's on ALL English coins, so it doesn't identify one from another.

Please ask your questions one at a time. Your 1961 to 1966 British Pennies, uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £2 GBP. If they have been circulated, a few pence. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation.
