I recovered this U.S. Coast & Geodetic Survey BM from 1947 in good condition. The disk has been painted over but the designation stamping is still legible. This disk also shows up on a topography map as 'BM 4198'. The NGS datasheet info is adequate for disk recovery. My more accurate coordinated will place you very close to this mark.
NGS datasheet info:
HISTORY - 1947 MONUMENTED CGS
HISTORY - 20030107 GOOD HARDEY
