A small corroded fragment, 6.7 × 2.3 × 0.7 cm, of unknown wood, not fluted.
Lieutenant F. M. Symonds of the USS Mohican acquired this fragment in 1886 while surveying Easter Island.
He does not appear to have reported it, and later that year gave it to a Mrs Walter M. Gifford (the Bishop Museum writes "Giffard") of Honolulu.
Some fourteen "very small, chubby glyphs" are visible on the four lines of side a, of which only three are complete.
Side b is unknown since the fragment is kept in a protective glass case, and evidently no one has ever investigated the reverse (Fischer 1997).
