I have limited time today so I went out for an hour hunt. Only found 3 things but am interested to know more about the metal button I found. I was on an old home site/farm land. We have found several Bulls Eye buttons and I expected this to be the same. Once I cleaned it up I saw it has the word FLYS in all caps. Is this just a button similar to the Bulls Eye buttons for jeans maybe? Any info you could give would be appreciated. I know it's nothing rare but it's my first button with my new detector and I'm glad I was able to find such a small target. Thanks for looking and HH everyone!

Congrats on the button find! Try to post some close up photos, front and back. That would help with the ID.

I think its a modern snap 'button'. Although not having a loop, I would say your still looking for your first button.:thumbsup:

I'm no button expert, but that design looks familiar. You may want to post it in the "What is it?" forum for some additional feedback.
