Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Jital coin from the Kingdom of Kangra is that it features a unique blend of Hindu and Islamic influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a Hindu deity, while the reverse side features a Islamic inscription in Persian, highlighting the cultural exchange and syncretism that existed during the reign of Narendra Chandra Deva in the 15th century.
