There are a number of other interesting artefacts onboard NH - an American cloth flag, a silver coin, a piece of SpaceShipTwo, and most importantly the cremated remains of Clyde Tombaugh as well as a small epitaph for him.
These should be added IMO, it's an interesting contrast to the Pioneer plaque and the Voyager Golden Record. As well as, in my view, the most magnificent tomb in human history - he's leaving his home star behind and wandering the night sky for untold millions of years.
