Robert Dunlop Posted 12 September , 2020 Share Posted 12 September , 2020 The first 'R' will be 'Rex' (the Latin word for 'King') rather than 'Royal' as per the 'R' in 'RA' ;-) Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mebu Posted 13 September , 2020 Share Posted 13 September , 2020 Sorry, perhaps should have detailed in the post above: GR does mean Georgius Rex (King George) with the small v denoting he is the fifth George. Nowadays, it would be Elizabeth II Rex, as appears on coins etc. RA means Royal Artillery. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HERITAGE PLUS Posted 13 September , 2020 Share Posted 13 September , 2020 (edited) Quote Nowadays, it would be Elizabeth II Rex Actually it wouldn't it it would be Elizabeth II Regina - as HM is a Queen not a King - shorten to REG on coins.
