This is the legend (text) of coins issued in the reign of King George V (1910-1936). In full, the legend is:

georgivs v d g Britt omn rex fd ind imp

which is in Latin. It translates as follows:

GEORGIVS V ... (Latin: George V)

D G ... Dei Gratia (Latin: By the Grace of God)

BRITT OMN ... Britanniarum Omnium (Latin: Of all the Britons)

REX ... (Latin: King)

F.D. ... Fidei Defensor (Latin: Defender of the Faith)

IND IMP ... Indiae Imperator (Latin: Emperor of India)

So, it means:

George V, By the Grace of God, King of all the Britons, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India.

The coin you are referring to was minted in 1917. Typically, bronze coins (¼d, ½d, 1d) would have the entire titles on the obverse (heads) side of the coin. Silver coins typically have the FD IND IMP part on the reverse (tails) side.

Hope that helps.

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"


1917 one peso georgivs v deigra Brittomnrex fiddefind imp What is it?

I am unaware of any British Empire country that uses the Peso as its currency. The inscription is Latin, but abbreviated. The expression "GEORGIVS V" identifies the reigning Monarch of the period, in this case, King George V. It does not identify the country or the denomination of the coin. "DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP" means "By the Grace of God, King of all the British territories, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India".
