They aren't worthless, but the vast majority of Roman coins are struck in bronze which isn't worth as much as gold or silver, many were struck for circulation and bronze deteriorates with time meaning that many of the coins are not in good condition after being dug up 2,000 some odd years later. All of these affects value.

Why are magician's coins not illegal if they are made worthless?

Novelty companies make them from real coins. It is not illegal to make them, but it IS illegal to use them as money after they have been altered, so they are worthless as money, but they have a value as a novelty, usually a couple of dollars if you look on eBay. The idea that it is illegal to deface money goes back to ancient Rome or maybe even earlier. The penalty for defacing the Emporer's coins (they all "belonged" to the government but the people were allowed to "use" them) could be death.

What does d stand for in south African coins?

D stands for "denarius". It comes from when, back in the Roman times, the British used Roman currency (which was called the denarius). As the penny replaced the Denarius, the British continued to use the abbreviation "d." They passed this tradition on to South Africa, so the D on African coins is an abbreviation for penny.
