I have a Silver coin with "D G REG F D" "Elizabeth II" and a young
looking Elizabeth on one side, and "H.R.H. The Prince Of Wales And
Lady Diana Spencer" "1981" on the other.

I'm looking for the value of this coin. In my searches, I've seen
anywhere from 30 US cents up to $35. (even one listed selling for
$200, but then people can ask for anything they want!!)

I've also seen it listed as Austrailian as well as British.



It would depend on where it was from and the condition. The UK and
Commonwealth issued a multitude of wedding coins for Chuck and Di in
1981.

Those coins are kind of sad now, the marriage was a mistake right from
the
start.


Their marriage was not a mistake. Look at all of the good she was able to do with her fame. Look at how many children she helped? She was one of the first people to show that AIDS patients didn't have to be treated like lepers. And that marriage produced at least one boy worthy of ruling someday who has fearlessly served his country and continues to keep his mother's legacy of charity and compassion alive. A mistake....I think not.
