[QUOTE="THCoins, post: 2494658, member: 57364"]"I am hoping to find a list" Won't happen. Also one book will not be enough to introduce you to the complexities of Indian coinage. Falus (money in Arab[SIZE=5] فلوس[/SIZE] )in general are copper coins. The right part of the Arab word is something to remember, as it usually is easy to recognize on a lot of coins. Rati is not strictly a coin but a weigth standard, like "falus of 32 rati". Jitals i generally describe as "the small change used in Northern India to Afghanistan, deriving from the bull and horseman coinage of the Shahi of Kabul. Mostly around 3.4 grams and in low purity silver, to copper in later times" If you are interested in Sultanate coinage (pre-Mughal) look out for a used copy of "Goron & Goenka" (quite hard to get). For an overview of the different Jitals search for "Tye, Jitals" on Academia.edu. Although older, "Mitchiner, Non Islamic States" also is still very usefull.[/QUOTE]
