Queen Victoria was born on May 24, 1819. She became queen of the United Kingdom in 1837 and reigned until her death in 1901, making her one of the longest-serving monarchs in British history. Her birth date is celebrated as Victoria Day in some parts of Canada and Australia.
Queen Victoria died on January 22, 1901, and was buried on the Royal Burial Ground on the Frogmore Estate in Home Park at Windson at Berkshire. Her husband and three of her children are also buried there.

There has not been a king, or queen, of England since 1707. England is a part of, but not the same as, The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. In 1884 the British monarch was Queen Victoria and at that date her title was "Queen of Great Britain and Ireland."
1837 was the year Queen Victoria ascended the throne. Her Silver Jubilee year was 1862 (this was not celebrated as both her husband, Albert, and mother died in 1861 leaving her in mourning), her Golden Jubilee year was 1887 and her Diamond Jubilee year was 1897. She died at 6.30 pm on 22nd January 1901 at Osborne House, Isle of Wight. There were no "coins of the realm" issued commemorating any of the Jubilee's, although the Royal Mint produced coins from 1887-1892 using what they refer to as the "Jubilee bust". Coins issued from 1893-1901 are referred to as "Old Head coinage" or "veiled head" and are probably the most familiar image of Queen Victoria. There were a multitude of medals, medallions and souvenirs issued commemorating the various Jubilee's, not only in Britain, but in other countries, colonies and cities of the British Empire. There was a further issue of medals, medallions and souvenirs on her death. All of these will have a reference to the year 1837. They were made from a variety of metals with a wide variety of different designs and inscriptions. The gold, silver and bronze medals issued in 1887 had a ribbon added to them in 1897. They are all collectible and, depending on their condition, have some value at the very least. A reputable coin dealer will be able to assist with identification and give a valuation.
Victoria Day is celebrated in Canada on the Monday preceding May 25th each year. To calculate the date, simply identify the last Monday in May and count backward to find the preceding Monday. If May 25 falls on a Monday, then Victoria Day is celebrated on that date. This holiday marks the birthday of Queen Victoria and serves as a start to the summer season in Canada.
There were lots of different "small coins" struck. Please post a new question with the specific denomination.
You have some sort of a memorial token or medallion, possibly not worth a great deal. The date has no particular significance. It does not represent her birthday, coronation, marriage, any of her Jubilees, her death or burial. Queen Victoria died on 22-January-1901.
Recheck your date -- there were no silver certificates dated 1887.
