Interesting fact

The 1 Penny coin from Edward I's second coinage (1299-1301) was minted in Ireland during a time when the country was still under English rule. Despite being minted in Ireland, the coin features the image of King Edward I of England, highlighting the political and economic ties between the two countries during that time period.
