British coin

[olegator34]

I am wondering if this Elizabeth II coin has any value to it? I got this from my mother-in-law some 20 years ago. It has seven flats on it the wording D.G.REG.F.D.1969 (note:the dots are actually centered half way up each letter) head and shoulders pic of Elizabeth II with this name in front of her face at the edge of the coin. The size of the coin is from a flat to the oposite point is 1-3/8ths inches. The obverse Says NEW PENCE around the top of the curve with a person( I think a woman sitting on a lion with a spear in her right hand and a branch with leaves on it in her left with a shield leaning against her backside). and at the bottom of the coin is big 50 by it's self. Sorry, I don't have a camera so I have NO way of showing it to anyone. Just thought someone from Briton may help me out. Also looks to be made from maybe silver, but it's not brightly polished. Thanks for any help. This is obviously made for the Queen of England. The present Queen? Olegator34

It sounds like a old 50 pence (ie not legal tender anyone, replaced with smaller ones), yes its the present Queen & not worth more than $1. Curo-nickle - not silver

Thanks CRUSADER, I saw the pic of the 50pence.jpg you sent but there was a difference in the wording on the back. Mine says NEW PENCE not fifty pence as the one in the pic shows. Maybe just that mine was newer!!!!! olegator

That was quick search, yours is slightly older than the one pictured.
