HQ0340 - USC&GS 'T 134' BM - Goldfield, NV - U.S. Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

I recovered this U.S. Coast & Geodetic Survey benchmark from 1955 in good condition. It is a brass disk monumented in the SE corner of the courthouse building of Goldfield. The NGS coordinates will place you very close to this mark.
