Rainbow bug

Hello! I found a bug in my yard recently and was wondering what is what. I apologize that I don't have a picture and recognize it may be impossible to tell what the bug is just based on description but any leads would be appreciated. I live in Indiana. My family called it the pride bug since its underbelly was striped in a weird rainbow color. I believe it was more green/yellow striped closer to the head and faded into more red/pink/orange as it progressed. I believe the wings also had a bit of color to them but they were mostly a dark grey. It was about the size of a quarter and if I had to guess I would call it some kind of beatle since they are pretty common around my yard.
