Nice shot rockround.
These are USGS elevation markers. You can find many of them them in most US towns and cities. They are used as a "known" starting point for doing grade work. Surveyors will use them as a benchmark starting point when shooting elevations. It is a federal felony to tamper with them.

Nice tampering that you did! You really kept the color and totally captured the detail.

The folks who came up with Geocaching also support a recovery project for USGS Bench Marks. Although this one is pretty well known, your photo is better than any posted to the site:

Would you consider registering and logging your find with the photo?
