It can't be a 1911 Victoria coin because she died in 1901.
"dei gra" isn't the denomination, either; it's part of a motto that appears on all British Coins.
Please post a new question with the coin's denomination and date. If you can't find the denomination, describe the image on the side of the coin that's opposite to the portrait of the king or queen.

Victoria Threepence with a different inscription instead of D.G. or DEI GRA it has DEI GRATI is this unusual?
No, it is not an unusual inscription. It is a variant of the same thing, but it is unusual on a Threepence. The smaller coins do not have the full inscription due to limitations of space. The phrase "VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP" is mostly abbreviated from Latin. The literal definition is - "Victoria by the Grace of God, Queen of the British territories, Defender of the Faith, Empress of India".
You have what appears to be a Western Australian one penny made in 1896 The back of the coin has a picture of queen Victoria and it reads victoria-dei-gra-Britt-Regina-fid-def-ind-imp on the back of t?
There were no Australian (or Western Australian) Pennies minted prior to 1911. An image of Queen Victoria and the inscription VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP (Queen Victoria, by the Grace of God, Queen of the British Territories, Defender of the Faith, Empress of India) or similar, would have appeared on the obverse of any official British coin minted in 1896. What you may have is a Traders token or a medallion. The reverse may have a business name and address on it or, some sort of commemorative inscription.

What was the godless florin?
The Florin was reintroduced into the British currency in 1848 as one tenth of a Pound (or Two Shillings), as a tentative step towards decimalisation. The usual inscription on British coins at this time was similar to this - VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF. This is Latin and the literal definition is - "Victoria by the Grace of God, Queen of the British territories, Defender of the Faith". The "godless" Florins were so called because the reference to god (DEI GRATIA, DEI GRA or D G) was omitted from the Florins. There was a great furore about it, and in 1851, D G was included on the Florins.
What does IND IMP on the Sixpence mean?
IND IMP was part of a much larger title used by British Monarchs. It is abbreviated Latin and means Emperor (or Empress) of India. IND IMP (India Imperator) was used on British and British Empire/Commonwealth coins from about 1893 when India became part of the British Empire, until 1948 when India became independent. Depending on who was king or queen at the time and which particular coin it appeared on, the legend may have appeared as - "VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP" "EDWARDVS VII DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP" "GEORGVS V DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP" "GEORGVS VI DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP"
What denomination is victoria-dei-gra-Britt-Regina-fid-def-ind-imp 1951?
Such a coin does not exist. Queen Victoria died in 1901. The legend "Victoria-dei-gra-britt-regina-fid-def-ind-imp" does not help identify a coin. It could appear on any British or British Empire coin issued from 1838 to 1901. You need to describe the design on the coin, the metal it appears to be made from and the diameter. Coins dated 1951 would have George VI on them. If you do indeed have a Queen Victoria "coin" with 1951 on it, it may well be a souvenir token commemorating the 50th anniversary of her death.

Victoria dei gra Britt Regina fid def ind imp goldring?
I imagine this to be a coin set in a mount on a ring, but the description is incomplete. If it is a coin it is probably a sovereign. Modified coins have no collector value.
