A British Caribbean Territories 1965 bronze 1 cent coin (Elizabeth II), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £0.50 GBP. If it has been circulated, not much.
The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.

What countries have Queen Elizabeth on their coins?
I cant find anything earlier than the Bermuda series, which feature the Queen and date back to 20/10/1952, which was Her Majesties 226th day as Sovereign. The Malaya/Borneo and Bermuda notes bearing her image arrived 6 months later. It would take 8 years before the Queen first appeared on British Banknotes. In terms of countries, heres the list : 1. Bahamas 2.Bermuda 3.British Honduras ( now Belize) 4. Canada 5. Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) 6. Cyprus 7. East Africa ( Today Kenya, Uganda & Tanzania) 8.Falkland islands 9.Fiji 10. Great Britain 11. Hong Kong 12. Isle of Man 13. Jamaica 14. Malaya & British Borneo ( Today Singapore, Malaysia & Brunei) 15. Malta 16. Mauritius 17. Australia 18. New Zealand 19. Rhodesia & Nyasaland ( Today Zimbabwe, Zambia & Malawi) 20. St. Helena 21. East Carribean States 22. Scotland 23. Guernsey 24. Gibralter 25. Jersey 26. Seychelles I bet theres a few missing in this list, but something to start with !
What is a british coin that says Queen Elizabeth the second with no date no denomination worth?
You need to tell us what is on the coin. There are no British coins that have the legend of Queen Elizabeth the Second, rather the British coins would be in Latin and be some variation of Elizabeth II Dei Gratia Regina. So if the legend is in English you either a) Have a coin from somewhere in the commonwealth or most likely if there is no denomination/date you have b) a medal or a token of some sort
Why is Queen Elizabeth II on the coin?
You're going to have to be a lot more specific. Elizabeth is queen not just of England but of all the countries in the British Commonwealth. In addition her image has been on coins since 1953, AND each one of those countries issues lots of different types of coins. Please post a new question with > the name of the country (if no name, it's England) > the coin's denomination > what year it is You DON'T have to copy the "dei gra f.d. ..." words because they're on ALL Commonwealth coins and don't help to ID anything.
How many pounds were stolen in 'The Adventure of The Red Headed League' by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle?
Nothing was stolen because Sherlock Holmes stopped the robbery, but I will answer the question: "How many pounds were stored in the bank vault in 'The Red-Headed League'?" This is a difficult question to answer because the French Napoleon gold coin comes in a variety of denominations. Assuming the coins were 20 Francs (by far the most common at the time) they would equal the gold content of about 23,800 British Sovereign gold coins or about 23,800 British pounds. The equivalent buying power would be well over 2,000,000 British pounds today. If you are asking about the weight in American pounds, the thirty thousand 20 Francs coins would weigh about 425 American pounds without the storage crates.
