A small section on the field of battle at Cold Harbor, where the remains of a soldier's uniform remains. Atop the uniform remnants, a human skull has been placed (as it seems too artfully placed to have fallen coincidentally in such a manner). Inscription on verso: "Battlefield-Cold Harbor." Numeric notation on verso: "95."
