I took the heart to the vet, he looked at it for about one second and said it's vegetative endocarditis usually caused by eysipelas. There was an abnormality on one of the valves.
After a quick search I'm not entirely convinced that it's erysipelas but it's probably possible since one site,
http://vetmed.iastate.edu/vdpam/new-vdpam-employees/food-supply-veterinary-medicine/swine/swine-diseases/erysipelas
said "Interestingly, outbreaks of vegetative endocarditis can occur in the absence of other clinical signs."
At least now I know what to watch out for if the other four pigs show symptoms of infection. They're rotated through lushly vegetated paddocks every few or so and have what I think is a good mineral supplement in their feed from mid-western bio-ag, so I don't expect any further problems especially since the pig that died was a runt anyway. It could have been affected by something months ago.
I appreciate the feedback I've gotten here and look forward to any more advice now that I've received the vet's diagnosis.
