The coin with the inscription "FID DEF IND IMP" is from the United Kingdom. This inscription stands for "Fidei Defensor" (Defender of the Faith), "Indiarum Imperator" (Emperor of India), and is commonly found on British Coins. It dates back to the time when the British monarch was also the Emperor of India.

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.

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.
