| Full text | ELIZABETH II DEI GRATIA REGINA FIDEI DEFENSATRIX |
| Translation | Translated from Latin: Elizabeth the Second, by the grace of God, Queen, Defender of the Faith [year]. |
This legend of Queen Elizabeth II is used on the coinage of the United Kingdom, which by long-standing tradition has the monarch's legend in Latin language. On the coins of other countries where she is monarch, the legends are in English. The dividers between the words differ based on the Queen's portrait, e.g. ELIZABETH · II D · G · REG · F · D · [year] with the Machin portrait, but ELIZABETH II D · G · REG · F · D · [year] for the Maklouf portrait or ELIZABETH · II · D · G REG · F · D · [year] for the Rank-Broadley portrait. Position also varies, see photos below. | |
ELIZABETH · II · D · G · REG · F · D · [year] - Example/s on coins
Queen Elizabeth II - legend in Latin with the Arnold Machin portrait United Kingdom / Ten Pence 1970 The legend was initially combined with the Queen's second portrait by Arnold Machin. Her name is to the right of the portrait, and the rest of the legend is on the left. |
Queen Elizabeth II - legend in Latin with the Maklouf portrait United Kingdom / Fifty Pence 1986 (mint sets only) The legend was later used with the Queen's Third Portrait by Raphael Maklouf as well. Note that the order is now different - her name is on the left of the portrait. |
Queen Elizabeth II - legend in Latin with the Rank-Broadley portrait United Kingdom / One Pound 2008 Shield The legend continued in use with the Queen's Fourth Portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley. When combined with this effigy, the legend runs almost continuously around the rim of the coin. |
