Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Penny - William I (Early issues) ND (1165-1174) from Scotland is that it features a unique design, with a crowned bust of King William I on the obverse (front) side, and a cross fleury on the reverse (back) side. This design was used during the early issues of William I's reign and is different from the standard design used on other coins of the same denomination and period.
