Possibly
One of the Broken-Dashes? I'm not having a lot of luck here -- a shot of the underside is always useful with Skippers.

I don't have my guide handy, so I can't tell you what it is, but most of the Roadsides (including Bronze) have checkered fringes on both wings. This guy doesn't, so I'd look elsewhere.
