🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Copper disc

[cudamark]

I found this on a dirt lot in an old neighborhood . I though it was going to be an old penny at first, but, after a bit of cleanup, I could see it wasn't one. It looks like it's stamped RCB up top, and 7808 below with what I believe to be a rivet in the middle. Nothing on the back. Maybe a survey marker?

This is probably a survey marker labeled RCE which stands for Registered Civil Engineer and 7808 for the license number. I would be happy to find out more about it if you could provide me more about were it was located. I am what people call a benchmark hunter.👍

I have dug a little deeper and it was placed by Alfred William Livett, Jr.

Yup, that's the area it was found. Thanks!

I’m wondering if you could please tell me were you found it exactly like the name of the place at some point when you have time because I’m realy into mapping survey mark locations 🙏

I can't seem to find the exact lot looking at Google maps. If I'm in that area again, I'll try to find it and get an address. Wasn't much of a lot and my buddy and I didn't find anything good there, so, it's not engraved in our memories.
