| Additional information |
Kangra's coinage under the rulers of the Katoch dynasty remains poorly documented in Western numismatic literature, leaving attributions like this one dependent almost entirely on the work of regional specialists. The AKJ reference corpus — compiled from temple hoards and site finds across Himachal Pradesh — is the primary framework for placing these issues. Apurva Chandra Deva ruled during a period when the Delhi Sultanate's grip on the Himalayan foothills was loosening, allowing small hill kingdoms to reassert independent monetary production, however modest in scope.
