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. Depending on who was king or queen at the time and which particular coin it appeared on, the legend may have appeared as - "VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP" "EDWARDVS VII DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP" "GEORGVS V DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP" "GEORGVS VI DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP"
Check your coin again. Queen Victoria died in 1901.
George V coins were issued from 1911 to 1936 inclusive.
(Victoria) Fid Def Britt Reg and Regina Fid Def Britanniarum describes the title of the monarch in abbreviated Latin, in this case, Queen Victoria. It tells us nothing about the coin other than it is British or from one of the many British Empire/Commonwealth countries or Colonies. 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". British coins issued in 1887 were - Five Pounds - gold (non-circulating) Two Pounds - gold (non-circulating) Sovereign - gold (One Pound) Half-Sovereign - gold (Ten Shillings) Crown - silver (Five Shillings) Double-Florin - silver (Four Shillings) Halfcrown - silver (Two Shillings and Sixpence) Florin - silver (Two Shilling) Shilling - silver (Twelve Pence) Sixpence - silver Threepence - silver Penny - bronze Halfpenny - bronze Farthing - bronze
I imagine this to be a coin set in a mount on a ring, but the description is incomplete. If it is a coin it is probably a sovereign. Modified coins have no collector value.
The obverse of the 1953 British Sixpence reads from the top " ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA BRITT OMN REGINA", which is Latin for "Elizabeth II by the Grace of God Queen of all Britain". The reverse reads "FID DEF" which is a continuation of the obverse inscription meaning, "Defender of the Faith", a title given to Henry VIII by the Pope (before he incurred the wrath of the catholic church), and of course SIX PENCE 1953.
Well people say nothing but I've been looking around and in outstanding condition 10 English pounds, or 7 dollars..
The legend DEI GRA REG FID DEF is abbreviated Latin and has appeared on British coins and many coins of the various Commonwealth countries in one form or another for many years. 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". 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. The expression does not describe the coin, but is part of the many titles of the king or queen, whoever he or she may be at the time.
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.
Queen Victoria ruled the British Empire from 1837 until her death in 1901. The legend "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 most British Empire/Commonwealth countries. The 1899 British Penny is not rare, there were over 26 million minted.
If it has both George V and the year 1900, it is a very poor fake. George V did not appear on British coins until 1911.
