Answer 2

what is this coin worth toady

Answer 3

It's a penny (1d) of George V.

This is the legend (text) of coins issued in the reign of King George V (1910-1936). In full, the legend is:

georgivs v d g britt omn rex fd ind imp

which is in Latin. It translates as follows:

GEORGIVS V ... (Latin: George V)
D G ... Dei Gratia (Latin: By the Grace of God)
BRITT OMN ... Britanniarum Omnium (Latin: Of all the Britons)
REX ... (Latin: King)
F.D. ... Fidei Defensor (Latin: Defender of the Faith)
IND IMP ... Indiae Imperator (Latin: Emperor of India)

So, it means:

George V, By the Grace of God, King of all the Britons, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India.

The coin you are referring to was minted in 1917. Typically, bronze coins (¼d, ½d, 1d) would have the entire titles on the obverse (heads) side of the coin. Silver coins typically have the FD IND IMP part on the reverse (tails) side.

Value depends greatly on the condition of the coin.  For this 1917 1d coin, the values are currently (in £, so to convert to $, multiply by the current exchange rate, which is 1.6 on Jan 11, 2010):

F (Fine) ... £1  (typically well worn)
VF (Very Fine) ... £3  (most details intact, worn, but not excessively)
EF (Extremely Fine) ... £15  (details clear, has been only very mildly circulated ... may be traces of lustre)
Unc (Uncirculated) ... £40  (as name suggests, uncirculated - may not be 100% shiny, but obvious it's not seen circulation)

Hope that helps!
