Regina is Latin for Queen. Depending on the year of your coin, it could be either Queen Victoria (1837 to 1901) or Queen Elizabeth II (1953 to present). DG or DEI GRA is abbreviated Latin for Dei Gratia - meaning, by the Grace of God.
Check your coin, Queen Victoria died in 1901.
The phrase "VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP" is mostly abbreviated from Latin. The literal definition is - "Victoria by the Grace of God, Queen of the British territories, Defender of the Faith, Empress of India". This expression and variations of it appear on the obverse of all pre-decimal coins of all British Empire/Commonwealth countries. The expression identifies the reigning Monarch of the period, in this case, Queen Victoria. It does not identify the country or the denomination of the coin. The equivalent phrase for Queen Victoria's successor, King Edward VII, is - "EDWARDVS VII DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP". The literal definition is - "Edward VII by the Grace of God, King of all the British territories, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India". The phrase varies as the Monarch and the gender of the Monarch changes, and as the circumstances of the British Empire/Commonwealth changes.

It wouldn't say Victoria and be dated 1909 because Victoria died in 1901. Also the motto is on ALL British coins so it doesn't help ID anything. Please post a new question with the coin's date and denomination.

Well, darling, the Elizabeth II dei gratia Regina fid def coin comes from the one and only Canada. Yes, you heard me right, the land of maple syrup and polite apologies. So if you've got one of those coins in your pocket, you're holding a piece of Canadian history, eh!
