The following cities in Africa begin with the letter D: · Dakar, Senegal · Damanhur, Egypt · Dar es Salaam, Tanzania · Dire Dawa, Ethiopia · Djibouti, Djibouti · Douala, Cameroon · Durban, South Africa
the correct answer is B
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.

You are asking about a Farthing (or 1/4 Penny) coin from South Africa (KM#44). The coin is made of bronze and weighs 2.8 grams. On the front is a portrait of Queen Elizabeth the Second and the words "ELIZABETH II REGINA" (Latin for "Elizabeth the Second, Queen"). On the back is an image of two brids on a branch with berries with the date, "1953", above, the denomination "1/4 D" ("D" is the symbol for "Penny", so "1/4 D" means "One-Quarter Penny") below, "SUID-AFRIKA" (Afrikaans for "South Africa") to the left and "SOUTH AFRICA" to the right. 7,193,000 such coins were produced for circulation in 1953, along with another 5,000 in Proof for collectors. According to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, an example is worth US$0.15 in Fine condition, US$0.25 in Very Fine condition, US$0.50 in Extremely Fine condition, US$1.50 in Uncirculated condition, and US$2.00 in Proof.
