1 Jital - Devangga Chandra Deva

The Kingdom of Kangra, nestled in the Himalayan foothills of what is now Himachal Pradesh, maintained a remarkably persistent coinage tradition through the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries despite near-constant pressure from the Lodhi Sultanate and later Mughal expansion. The jital denomination itself was an inheritance from earlier Shahi and post-Shahi monetary practice that had circulated across the northwestern subcontinent for centuries before Kangra's rulers adopted it as their own.

Billon issues from this kingdom are notoriously difficult to attribute with precision — the broad date range assigned to Devangga Chandra Deva reflects genuine uncertainty in the dynastic chronology rather than scholarly carelessness.
