Best Answer

There are no Queen Victoria coins dated 1837, which was the year she came to the throne. The first issue of Queen Victoria coins was in 1838. All 1837 coins have King William IV on the front.

You most likely have a souvenir medal or medallion produced for her coronation or one of her Jubilee years in 1862, 1887 or 1897.

Please check your coin.

Queen Victoria did not take the throne until 1837. There are no 1797 Victorian coins.

British gold coins issued in 1797 included the Guinea, Half-Guinea and the Third-Guinea coins.

The 1797 Guinea has a crowned, spade shaped shield on the reverse and is 24mm in diameter.

The 1797 Half-Guinea has a crowned, spade shaped shield on the reverse, but is a little smaller than the Guinea.

The 1797 Third-Guinea has a crown on the reverse, and is smaller than the other two.
