Description, scan 2
Three corroded metal objects lie on a mounted photograph card. On the left, a long thin rod with a rounded end runs the full height of the frame, and the centre piece is an elongated flat fragment with a small round hole near its lower edge. A shorter broken fragment with a dark pitted surface lies on the right, and handwritten notes appear along the bottom edge.
