Huh.  MUTCD W1-10 through W1-10e cover a lot of variations, but apparently that's not one of them.

It reminds me of the obsolete Greek letter sampiϡ

You know, if I ever return to Long Island, I really have to remind myself to go back to my hometown and take a picture of this street-name sign.

Don't tell me you don't see that street sign along New York State Route 112 with the side street that's literally named "Private Road."

Somebody needs to paint on a stream of pee coming out of that.
There already is. You just can't see it because the sign is yellow.

I just noticed the numbers too are in reverse.

Then the contractor who done work in Gold Rock, NC at I-95 Exit 145 did something odd. They removed the SB NC 48 panel and left straight through NC 4 and NB NC 4 & 48 on the gantry.   

In this case Two out of Three is bad.😂


What's up, too, with the lack of a SOUTH banner for SB NC 4?
