There's no such coin as a "pence". The word is the plural of penny in the British coinage system, so "a pence" would be like saying "one feet".

In any case the penny is the smallest denomination; as of 04/2013 it's equivalent to about 1.6 US cents.

Any British coin denominated in New Pence was issued between 1968 and 1981. Unless it's in uncirculated or near-uncirculated condition, it has no added value. As of mid-2010 the exchange rate is very roughly £1 = $1.50 so just multiply the denomination in new pence by 1.5 to get its value in US cents.

Note - 5, 10, and 50 new pence coins were removed from circulation in the 1990s and replaced with smaller coins so if you have one of those your coin is only a curiosity piece.

What is a 1979 British New Pence coin worth D G Reg F D?

Your description is applicable to every British coin issued in 1979. On the same side of the coin you read "New Pence", there will be a number indicating "how many" New Pence. The 1979 British 1/2, 5, 10 and 50 New Pence coins have long been withdrawn from circulation and have little or no value unless they are in mint condition, and even then, not much. The 1979 British 1 New Penny and 2 New Pence coins are still potentially in circulation, so are worth 1 and 2 Pence respectively, unless they are in mint condition, and even then, not much.
