There's no such thing as Scottish pounds or English pounds, the UK uses pound sterling (internationally abbreviated to GBP).

There are English banknotes and Scottish banknotes, but they're the same currency.

Sorry, it's so alien to me that you don't have a national printing press and instead rely on banks to do your money printing.

But banknotes are literally issued by private banks? Why not have a national mint that covers all GBP?
