1 Jital

Kangra's mid-14th century copper jitals were struck during the reign of the hill chiefs while the Delhi Sultanate's grip on the northern Punjab hills was loosening following Muhammad bin Tughluq's chaotic administrative overreach. Local dynasts across the Shivalik foothills reasserted minting rights during precisely this window, producing small copper issues that circulated within tightly bounded regional economies rather than competing with Sultanate silver.
