Certainly nobody will every know for sure but here is a list I found that gives various cards and how they came to be known as the fifth card:
Jack of Diamonds - according to the transcripts of McCall's trial, a witness claims that this was the card.
Five of Diamonds - the town of Deadwood purportedly has this card on display, claiming it to be the actual card.
Nine of Diamonds - according to supposed eyewitness accounts at the time.
Queen of Clubs - Ripley's Believe It Or Not has this card on display.
