I recovered this U.S. Coast & Geodetic Survey benchmark from 1943 in good condition. It is monumented on top of a square concrete monument that projects about three inches above the ground. The NGS datasheet info is adequate for recovery (exception noted in red text). This BM is also listed on a topography map as 'BM 4237'. My more accurate coordinates should place you very close to this mark>
