Jha, Amal Kumar and Sanjay Garg, A Catalogue of the Coins of Katoch Rulers of Kangra, Indian Institute of Research in Numismatic Studies (IIRNS), Nashik, Maharashtra, India, 1991, 116 pages, hardcover. Kangra is in Himachal Pradesh on the border of Punjab. There is an extensive history of the region followed by a discussion of the coinage, which is mostly bull and horseman jitals with Samanta Deva and jitals with the horseman on the obverse and legends identifying rulers on the reverse. The catalogue contains 732 coins, ending with a few from the Delhi Sultanate. The photos of coins are mediocre at best, which is too bad given the incredible detail that the authors accomplished in describing differences in die varieties, ex James Farr Collection Library.
