Please post a new question with
> the name of the country (if no name, it's England)
> the coin's denomination
> what year it is

What is Queen Elizabeth II official title?
Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor Her given (first and middle) names are Elizabeth Alexandra Mary. Her family name by birth is Windsor. However, her paternal line formerly had the surname Saxe-Coburg-Gotha which was the surname of Queen Victoria's husband. In 1917, King George V, Elizabeth's great-grandfather, changed the family name to Windsor. On Elizabeth's marriage to her third cousin, Philip Mountbatten (the Duke of Edinburgh, formerly the Prince of Greece and Denmark), she did not adopt his family name but continued as a Windsor. Philip's surname Mountbatten is actually an anglicised version of Philip's mother's family/maiden name, Battenberg. However, by paternal descent, (his father was Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark), Philip is a member of the Danish-German House of "Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg." If Philip had continued to use the surname of his father, and if Elizabeth had adopted her husband's surname on her marriage to him, her full name now would be
Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg. In addition to her personal name she has many titles. * For more information see Related Links below.
