Weird Object - Marker Related?

The object below was found in approximately the location (with a foot or so) of where DX2357 should be.

Might this have anything to do with the possibly missing benchmark? Can't say I have seen anything quite like it before. No markings visible. Doesn't seem to be a cover, unless the whole thing unscrews. Unfortunately, it is in a fairly busy traffic area, so it will be difficult to investigate. Anyone have any ideas?

Klemmer,

 

Sorry, the low down is as you know:

 

DX2357_MARKER: DD = SURVEY DISK

DX2357_SETTING: 30 = SET IN A LIGHT STRUCTURE

DX2357_SP_SET: CATCH BASIN

DX2357_STAMPING: LINE-405 2F-12-69

 

The Light structure was a Catch Basin.

 

It is hard to say what this is and other surveyors may have wondered too. If there was data in someone's records that could be another story.

 

As the original hunter said, that entire area was dozed in 1982 to make way for new development, and that was when this benchmark likely met it's fate.

 

Good hunting though :-)
