1896 gold Victoria- dei -gra -Britt- Regina?

That motto is on ALL British coins so it doesn't help to ID a specific coin. Please post a new question with the coin's denomination and an estimate of how worn it is.


What is an 1896 Victoria dei gra Britt Regina fid def ind imp mintmark m?

Well, you didn't specify the denomination, but let me tell you what the legends mean. 1896 is obviously the date on the coin, Victoria is who is depicted on the front of the coin. Dei Gratia means by the grace of god. Britt Regina means queen of the British. Fid def means defender of the faith, and Ind Imp means Empress of India. Put these together and you get part of Queen Victoria's royal title, Victoria, by the grace of God, queen of Britain, defender of the faith and empress of India. As for the mintmark M, this mintmark would only appear on the gold coins, the sovereign and the half sovereign for this date. The mintmark would be above the date on the reverse between the 8 and 9 on the ground with St. George slaying the dragon. This mintmark means the coin was minted in Melborne.

You have a gold 1896 dollar how much is it worth?

The last year for a gold US one dollar coin was 1889. If you have an 1896 Morgan silver dollar that has toned a gold hue, it needs to be seen for a accurate assessment. Take it to a coin dealer.


What is the value of a Victoria dei gra Britt Regina fid def ind imp chain gold and silver 18k rgp?

At the very least, it will be worth the current bullion value of whatever gold and silver was used to make it. Presumably there is a coin on the chain. Whatever collector value the coin may have had was lost when the coin was modified as a piece of jewellery.

The coin could be a gold Five Pound, Two Pound, Sovereign, Half-Sovereign or a silver Crown. In the absence of a denomination, the year, metal and diameter of the coin would help in identifying the coin.

What is the value of a gold coin with the inscription Victoria dei gra Britt Regina fid def ind imp year 1900 with a mintmark below the horses feet centrally above the date?

Your coin is either a gold Sovereign or a Half-Sovereign. A Sovereign is about 22mm in diameter and a Half-Sovereign about 19.3mm. The mintmark will be a small M, P or S indicating that the coin was minted at the Melbourne, Perth or Sydney Mint. Coins minted at the London Mint have no mintmark.


Is your 1893 British Two Pound coin a forgery?

It is quite possible. These coins are a target for forgers. The 1893 Two Pound (Double Sovereign) coin should show the "Old veiled bust" of Queen Victoria on the obverse and St. George slaying the dragon on the reverse. The inscription should read - "VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP" The coin is made from 22 carat gold and should weigh 16 grams and be 28.4 mm in diameter. If in doubt, take your coin to a reputable coin dealer for examination.


Can a gold coin from England Georgius V dei gra Britt omn rex fid def ind imp but with the date 1895 and no mintmark be a mistake in the coin or date?

15 years is a very big mistake especially for a gold coin. I suggest that the coin is not what it appears to be. A reputable coin dealer will be able to identify your coin and give a valuation if it turns out to be genuine.
