Found these items today while detecting. The button looking thing says “Premium Flyer” on it. My first thought was it’s a button but I’m also considering the primer end to a shotgun shell? Google searches turned up nothing for me. The other item looked like a rock at first but after taking a chisel to it, I broke it in half to find a very shiny silver color. Included magnified pics of each item.

That is a button but I'm not sure about the lead.

Wow that was a rare one.
I'll try to find that sales site again where it was listed up for pretty good $$$
Too bad you chopped it though.

Is lead ever that pale? Couldn't it be silver slag?

Isn't the first thing a likely blue jean button? 1965-1985? Maybe google mfrs. check letters on it against clothing makers names?
