One interesting fact about the 1 Penny - David I (Period D) ND (1153-1165) coin from Scotland is that it features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins of the same denomination from other regions. The coin has a distinctive cross-fleury pattee motif on the reverse side, which is a symbol of the Christian faith and a nod to Scotland's rich religious history. This design element gives the coin a distinctly Scottish flavor and makes it stand out from other coins of the same period.
