Translation

Translated from Latin: Charles the Second, by the Grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland.

This legend was displayed on the coinage of King Charles II of England. By long standing tradition, it is in Latin language and not in English. The legend reflects the king's claim to the throne of France (which he did not actually rule).
