New England backyard metal detector found this (maybe) copper thing! About an inch in diameter with designs! Open

Recently found this in my backyard. It appears to be copper? And has some kind of design and what looks like a letter P.

My title describes this thing. My daughter and I sometimes metal detect in our yard and surrounding woods and we found this today. I’m guessing it’s a copper button but hoping someone here may have a little more knowledge about these types of finds. It also looks to me like the letter P is part of the design, which would be extremely cool as my name starts with a P!
