I will assume that you refer to the 1942 British Florin.

The obverse has "GEORGIVS VI D : G : BR : OMN : REX" which is heavily abbreviated Latin for "George VI, by the grace of god, king of all Britain", more or less.

The reverse has ":FID:DEF::IND:IMP:" which is a continuation of the obverse legend, abbreviated Latin for "Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India".

All British silver coins from 1937 to 1946 inclusive will have the same inscriptions on the obverse and reverse.

All British nickel-brass and bronze coins from 1937 to 1948 inclusive will have the combined inscriptions on the obverse.
