Where is the word Britain derived from?
The name Britain is derived from the Latin name Britannia, via the Old French Bretaigne. Brittannia or Britannia was the name used by the Romans from the 1st century BC. Following the Roman conquest of AD 43, it came to be used for the Roman province, which happened to be restricted to the island of Great Britain. Because of this, Brittannia was increasingly used for Great Britain in particular, which had formerly been known as Albion. The form with single t, Britannia, is secondary, but can be traced to the Roman period. Latin Britannia is derived from the travel writings of the ancient Greek Pytheas around 320 BC.

What is the history of the British one penny with Victoria DG with a bun in her hair 1891?
The British Pennies showing Queen Victoria with a "bun" in her hair were issued from 1841 to 1894. The "young head" from 1841 to 1860. What is known as the "Bun Penny" or the "Bun Head Penny" was issued from 1860 to 1894 and show a slightly older laureate bust of Queen Victoria. The bust was designed by Leonard Charles Wyon, son of the designer of the earlier Queen Victoria coins, William Wyon. Pennies of this period always featured the iconic figure of Britannia on the reverse. The legend on the obverse - "VICTORIA D:G: BRITT: REG: F:D:" is abbreviated Latin, the full title being "VICTORIA DEI GRATIA BRITTANNIA REGINA FIDEI DEFENSOR", meaning "Victoria, by the grace of god, queen of Britain and defender of the faith" (more or less). The vast majority of these coins were minted at the Royal Mint London, but during the period 1874 to 1882, some coins were minted at the Heaton Mint in Birmingham in some years. It is thought that 17,885,961 1891 British Pennies were minted. Until 1860, all Pennies were made from copper. In 1860 this changed to bronze, an alloy of 95% copper, 4% tin and 1% zinc, which made them a little more durable. The coins were 30.81mm in diameter and weighed 9.422 grams. Many Queen Victoria Pennies were still circulating at the time of decimalisation in Britain in 1971.
