The "everyday" currency would have been the penny. 12 pennies made a shilling and twenty shillings made a pound. The penny itself was divided into 4 farthings.

How much did a newspaper cost in 1170 in groats?

In 1170, the cost of a newspaper would likely have been minimal since newspapers as we know them today did not exist. News was typically disseminated through proclamations, town criers, or hand-copied manuscripts, which would have varied in cost based on the scribe, the length, and the content being shared. Prices would likely have been in a local currency, rather than groats, which were more commonly used in the 13th to 16th centuries in England.
