Maundy Thursday is a Christian holy day commemorating the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with his disciples before his crucifixion. The name "Maundy" is derived from the Latin word "mandatum," meaning "command," referring to Jesus' command to love one another. It occurs on the Thursday before Easter and is often marked by the washing of feet, symbolizing humility and service. Many churches hold special services that include communion and reflection on the events leading up to Good Friday.

What is the history of a 1877 Queen Victoria silver penny It has on instead of the word one?

You possibly refer to a Maundy Penny. A very small coin of 11 mm made from sterling silver. A Maundy Penny belongs to the "Maundy Set" consisting of a sterling silver 1d, 2d, 3d and 4d coins. The Maundy tradition dates back donkeys years to 1699 when the "deserving poor" were presented with a Maundy Set on Maundy Thursday. See the link below for more detail.
