Your coin is either a gold Sovereign or a Half-Sovereign. A Sovereign is about 22mm in diameter and a Half-Sovereign about 19.3mm.
The mintmark will be a small M, P or S indicating that the coin was minted at the Melbourne, Perth or Sydney Mint. Coins minted at the London Mint have no mintmark.

Victoria Threepence with a different inscription instead of D.G. or DEI GRA it has DEI GRATI is this unusual?
No, it is not an unusual inscription. It is a variant of the same thing, but it is unusual on a Threepence. The smaller coins do not have the full inscription due to limitations of space. The phrase "VICTORIA DEI GRA BRITT REGINA FID DEF IND IMP" is mostly abbreviated from Latin. The literal definition is - "Victoria by the Grace of God, Queen of the British territories, Defender of the Faith, Empress of India".

Put these together and you get part of Queen Victoria's royal title, Victoria, by the grace of God, queen of Britain, defender of the faith and empress of India.
