The second drop is of white metal and shows large columned building with figures of men below it and a riband that reads “COLUMBUS, O. 1919.”

The final drop is a bronze circular disc with a bust of General Sherman. Reverse of the drop has “53^RD NATIONAL ENCAMPMENT GAR SEPT. 7-13, 1919 COLUMBUS, OHIO.”
