like a refrigerator magnet?

Size? Pic of back?

sorry about the lack of reference, here you go

Wow, that thing is tiny. Is it metallic, plastic or rubber? I guess the back is magnetic. It would help to see a pic of the back. Does it look like a refrigerator magnet?

The first thing to come into my mind by the flesh color is a childs hearing aid. But this is just a wild guess. I really have no idea.

could it be a hearing aid?

sorry silky, that's not it, it has a tiny round magnet glued to the back, but the whole thing is made of metal

It's a magnetic earring. They have a strong magnetic disk that goes on the back side of the ear lobe.

Yes, thats what it is. I agree. Silky had the right idea. You can also put them on your clothing. A picture of the back side might have helped ID this quicker.

here's one of the back. The magnet doesn't feel all that strong

That's why it fell of the kid's ear...

good point

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

The other part may be the stronger magnet.

Kids stick them all over their clothes. The magnet goes underneath. Some even have a tiny battery and light up and blink.

I guess my kids aren't into those things................yet

It's a digger finder, contact dugdigger to see if it belongs to him. Somewhere here he posted he lost his.
