Question
One Cent 1919 GEORGIVS V DEI GRA:BRITT:OMN:REXFID:DEF:IND:IMP:
Thanks so much!! Have a bless day...

Answer
Hi Loria, does it actually say '1 Cent' on the coin?
If so, there should be a country or region name on it also.
Great Britain used pennies, not cents, and did not have the country name on it.
This coin features King George V (1910-36). The abbreviated Latin legend stands for 'By the Grace of God, Ruler and King of Britain, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India'.
With more info I'll be glad to help further.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
