Found this in my dads garden today. It's a king George v coin from1912. I believe it's a 'farthing'

It says: GEORGIVS V DEI GRA BRITT OMN REX FID DEF IND IMP
Which I've read means: by the grace of god, ruler and king of Britain , defender of the faith, emperor of India.

It's so exciting to think that this coin probably hasn't been touched for nearly 70-100 years!!!

I doubt it's been 100 years judging by the wear but 70 is a possibility. Nice find!
