First, it should be George V, not George IV.
Second, all denominations of British coins bore that same inscription, and you give us no clue what you have. It could be anything from a farthing (copper coin about the size of a US cent) to a sovereign (a 22K gold coin weighing just under a quarter ounce). We need more info, please.
Here is a quick tutorial on how to ask questions like this:
1) Include a full description of both sides of the coin. You only described one side. For example, "Seated Brittannia with shield" and "ONE PENNY" would have been all we needed.
2) What metal is it made of - Copper? Bronze? Nickel? Silver?
3) How big is the coin? Diameter in millimeters is best here.
4) Is the edge smooth? Reeded? Lettered?
5) How much wear does it have? Condition is everything on rarer coins.
I hope this helps you for next time.

The legend is suppose to read "GEORGIVS V D.G. BRITT: OMN: REX F.D. IND: IMP:", which means "George V by the Grace of God, King of Britain, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India". But without the coin's denomination I'm afraid I won't be able to give you an accurate valuation. What is on the other side of the coin? Does it have a "3" on it, the word "farthing", "one penny" or "half penny"? If so, then you have a coin from Great Britain, else it's from Australia. Minimum value for the Great Britain pieces is about US$0.50 to $1 each in below average circulated grade, the kind of condition you would normally find for early George V issues. The Australian pieces are worth anywhere from $0.25 to $10 in the same grade depending on the denomination.
