    From what little I know is the signs generally were concrete. and burried at least 2'-4'? in the ground, others like a mile marker by a small bridge I found is at least 5' under the ground. The signs had a rectangular dimple about 1/2" deep. The letters or numbers protruded form the depressed area, read downward. Bridge marker had a 2 and a .05 below. also the raised data was painted black.
