Datsun 1200 Crankshaft Pulleys came in single- and double-belt type. There was also a triple-belt type for other A-series engines.

Overview
Datsun A-series crank pulleys are just pulleys. They are not a Harmonic Balancer. They may or may not have balancing holes drilled on the back side. Note that the pulley is zero-balanced (A-series engine are internally balanced, so all flywheels and crank pulleys interchange).

Single-groove pulleys
Early pulley (1966-1972) has a single timing mark. Identified by the triangular holes.
Late pulley (1972-up) has multiple timing marks. Identified by the round holes.

Underdrive Pulley
For high-RPM usage (above 8,000 RPM), move to a small diameter crankshaft pulley. This slows down the alternator and the water pump. Reducing the water pump flow is important to prevent cavitation at high speeds. And it also reduces friction, as faster spinning accessories take more power to drive.
Note that this will not prevent overcharging, as the Voltage regulator does that (if the VR is not working correctly, the alternator may overcharge even at 1100 RPM). On the contrary, a slower spinning alternator is likely to undercharge until the revs come substantially above idle.
Nissan Competition Pulley Set
Nissan Competition sold two small diameter crankshaft pulleys, which runs the accessories slower, so is suited for extra high RPM usage. For normal street use, it may run the accessories to slow for reliable usage.
