Every day is a winding road, you just got to get used to it.

How about NB I-295, Desert Road and US 1?

https://goo.gl/maps/82UTgXaszuTQfWm67 Here's Desert Road.
https://goo.gl/maps/3DP3NsL1rwExa8pM9 Here's US 1. It doesn't really make sense to sign Freeport here, as you've already passed Freeport and the three other exits for it, it should be Brunswick, or have no control.

This is going to happen at Interstate triangles also. This is not uncommon.

At an interstate triangle, or in your example, the two "routes" are different even though the exit destination is the same.

I believe the OP was looking for fully identical exits, with matching route number and exit destination.

The two exits for US 70N and TN 84 off I-40 at Monterey. And they're within about a mile of each other.

The situation the OP arises seems like it could arise anywhere a highway has multiple exits for a place of any significance. Note, for example, that neither of the signs the OP linked bear route numbers–all they say is Palm Coast–and if you look at a map, you'll see the two exits do not serve the same off-Interstate road. (That is, it's not a situation like the companion US route crossing back and forth with multiple exits in a short area.)

So the question is whether the OP is referring to the scenario where the guide signs do not list the roads onto which you're exiting but instead list only the one destination. If so, that would disqualify the examples kirbykart posted, and it would substantially narrow down the analysis because many states almost always post a route number or road name. If it doesn't matter whether the signs list route numbers or road names, then it would be a very common scenario–I can think of multiple exits near me that are signed for Alexandria, for example.

Not quite.  Exit #301 uses Jamestown, while Exit #300 uses Livingston.

Exit #301 EB – Monterey/Jamestown (US-70N)
Exit #301 WB – Monterey/Jamestown (US-70N)(TN-84)

Exit #300 EB – Monterey/Livingston (US-70N)(TN-84)
Exit #300 WB – Monterey/Livingston (US-70N)(TN-84)
Keep right except to pass.  Yes.  You.

This used to be true in Marietta GA, where exit 263 on I-75 NB and exit 265 SB both had BGS for "SR 120 Loop [shield], Marietta, Roswell". Then the route designations were changed, with 120 Loop being redesignated into SR 120 and SR 120 Alt. So now the NB sign lists SR 120 and the SB sign lists SR 120 Alt. It's still one road though
Control cities CAN be off the route! Control cities make NO sense if signs end before the city is reached!

I-29 does this with US 59 in Missouri:

EDIT:  Southbound I-55 also has this with the business loop/Old US 66/Lincoln Parkway at Lincoln, IL:
* At Exit 133 (northbound however has Lawndale as a second control)
*At Exit 123

I-64 has 2 exits for I-264. One is in Virginia Beach and has West I-264 signed for Norfolk/Portsmouth. At the tri-point of I-64, I-264, and I-664, East I-264 is signed for Norfolk/Portsmouth.

Since I-270 in Columbus no longer uses control cities, I guess they apply for this thread.

I-70 exits 93 and 108
I-71 exits 101 and 119
