Photo from Shatrugan Saravagi. Babur, Silver ½ Shahrukhi, Lakhnur mint, unlisted by Rahman, 2.35g.
Rahman does not list any fractional Shahrukhis for Babur. They become much more a feature of Humayun and Kamran's coinage but this is most probably the first half Shahrukhi of Babur ever to come to light.
