A Radon measure $\mu$ on ${mathbb R}^n$ is said to be $k$-monotone if $r\mapsto{\mu(B(x,r))}/{r^k}$ is a non-decreasing function on $(0,\infty)$ for every $x\in {\mathbb R}^n$. (If $\mu$ is the $k$-dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to a $k$-dimensional minimal surface then this important property is expressed by the monotonicity formula.) We give an example of a 1 -monotone measure $\mu$ in ${\mathbb R}^2$ with non-unique and non-conical tangent measures at a point. Furthermore, we show that $\mu$ can be the one-dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to a closed set $A\subset {\mathbb R}^2$.
