You need to tell us the country of origin (Queen Victoria was queen over a large empire), the denomination of coin (Sixpence, shilling, florin, etc.) and an estimate of condition (uncirculated, etc.)
Without that information it is impossible to say whether you have a $100,000 coin or a $.50 coin.
Still worth 50 cents. Unless its pure silver.
The only British 22 carat gold coins issued in 1899 were the Sovereign and the Half-Sovereign. The Florin was a silver coin from its introduction into the currency in 1848.
There's no difference. All silver dollars minted in 1894 used the Morgan design, named for the famous designer George T. Morgan.
A Sovereign has a face value of One Pound (GBP). In today's currency, a quarter of a Sovereign would be 25 Pence.

Since 1817, Sovereigns have been made from 22 carat gold. I cannot imagine why anybody would silver plate a gold coin, so you may have a replica in silver. Value unknown.
Australia does not produce any Sovereign coins.
There were no 1981 British Half-Sovereign minted.
The Sovereign is a coin, not a value. It does not have a symbol. The value of the Sovereign is One Pound. In the pre-decimal currency, it was also equal to One Pound (or 20 Shillings).
A Sovereign is Sterling coin. In 1880 a Sovereign was worth a Sovereign or One Pound. It's face value has not changed since it was reintroduced into the currency in 1817.
The Sovereign was not reintroduced into the British currency until 1817.
