I found this metal detecting today. It's made of brass. Does anybody know what it is?

That's because it's a surveyor's stick, it's designed to be used in conjunction with a transit.

Excalibur

giant hit stick

And someone JUST LEFT it there?

Its definitely in centimeters, take more pictures of the numbers

So it would seem.

Maybe there's a dead surveyor nearby.

I was expecting something to be in the background. I am disappointed.
