I love doing mystery puzzles and this one looks like they emptied my purse out! Hey toadalove, less of the '0ld' coins! these are new and I wouldn't mind a bucketful of them! Av.
Kind of tough puzzle - the Queen is very popular on money - not only in the United Kingdom, but in other nations as well. It's amazing how different each coin is. Does anyone know what "D.G. REG. F.D." means? I'm guessing "REG" is Regina (Latin for Queen).
I found out the answer to my question - ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA FIDEI DEFENSOR - Elizabeth II, by the grace of God, Queen, and Defender of the Faith.
