Old Highway 395 in northern San Diego County comes to mind.
What's it signed as?

Old Highway 395 on street blade or overpass bridge signs.  There are also brown historic US-395 signs

So it's not signed as a state highway, but as a former US-numbered state highway.

This has come up a couple times previously, but "Nevada 49" from Gerlach to Winnemucca is/was signed and still appears on some maps, despite being dropped from the system years ago.

California State Route 90 in Yorba Linda is maintained by the city between Placentia and Anaheim, but is still signed as 90.  A recent project by Caltrans to build a grade separation over railroad tracks near where 90 crosses from Yorba Linda into Anaheim includes new signing showing 90 continuing into Yorba Linda.

In Québec, any numbered highway (except autoroutes of course) that goes through a city of a notable size may very well have that part under municipal jurisdiction.

For example, around Montréal, 112 isn't provincial until at least Saint-Lambert, 117 until after Laval, and 125 is municipal until A-25 ends! Regarding 112, it becomes municipal again through Magog and Sherbrooke. 116 is municipal through a few cities as well, including Saint-Hyacinthe and Victoriaville. Of course, 138 and 335 are municipal through Montréal too.

I don't know if sr641 takes care of all their posts or not. They have about 80 of them.

Don't be an asshole, NE2.  He asked a legitimate question, and HB answered it nicely later on.

NY 3A between  Deferiet  and Fargo is maintained by Jefferson County, NY.   It is even signed concurrently with  County Route  36  its 5 plus miles bypassing Carthage.

NY has a LOT of state highways maintained by counties, cities, towns, and villages.  Another major one is NY 206 south of NY 30.

Yeah I was also noticing that about NY 3 inside the Watertown City Limits.  According to Wikepedia, it is pretty much municipally maintained including the NY 3 and NY 12 overlap.  In fact, NYSDOT takes over on the east end of town where it breaks free from Route 12.

Then you have all roads in NYC not at all run in Albany either.
