You are asking about a Six Pence (KM#903) from Great Britain. It is copper-nickel and measures 19.5mm in diameter. The front bears a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II (facing right), with the words "Elizabeth II DEI GRATIA REGINA" (Latin for "Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, Queen") around it. The back has an image of flora representing England (rose), Scotland (thistle), Wales (leek) and Ireland (shamrock), with the words "FID DEF" (abbreviated Latin for "Defender of the Faith") above and "SIX PENCE 1962" below. 166,484,000 such coins were produced in 1962.
According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example is worth about US$0.15 in Very Fine condition, US$0.35 in Extremely Fine condition, and US$1.75 in Uncirculated condition. A few were also produced in Proof condition for collectors; these are valued at about US$500.00 each.
