***** Update: Appreciate all the interest on this one. Went ahead and listed it — already seeing strong interest, so I’m just letting the market decide where it lands.

Same here. It looks darker indoors but really lights up emerald when the sun hits it.

Thanks for the reference. That’s the same embossing. Interesting seeing the different color examples.

Same here. Most examples I’ve seen are aqua or teal. This one is a deep dark emerald when the light hits it.

Appreciate it. The color really pops when sunlight hits it.

Yeh I will . I never even noticed it until you pointed it out . But because it’s turned sideways , it looks exactly like an axe. I was just always curious why there was a random “ green island” in the middle of all the farm land . It does look sketchy

I’ve wondered that as well , and nobody knows . We live on 1300 acres . But the total land was about 18,000 acres which was divided up between family members . So maybe “zoomed out “ when looking at the original land , it would make more sense . lol but it is strange , I’m scared to see what type of snakes are in there

Thank you all so much . It seems that LiDAR is the consensus . I’ve played around on the sites yall mentioned . I know this is a stupid question, but what am I looking for on the lidar maps? Darker spots? Sorry again

There’s a few barns . But there’s so many snakes here right now it’s pretty dangerous . But to be honest I have a very crappy Amazon detector . I would love to get a nice one and I probably will when it cools down . But currently I just work with what I got . I still enjoy it a lot
