Target Id #, This was an air test, but it gives a good reference for the field. As you know mineralization, halo effect and depth will differ, but it is a ball park reference. With 51 segments it will take awhile to learn them all.

1. Nickel +13, 14, 15 low tone
2. Penny +33, 34 Wheaty +36 Canadian +37, 38 Mid/high tone
3. Silver Dime +38 High tone
4. Clad Dime +37 High tone
5. Clad Quarter +38 High tone
6. Barber Quarter +38, 39 High tone
7. Clad Half +38 High tone
8. Deformed Screw Cap + 32 Mid tone
9. Modern Pull tab the kind that are supposed to stay with the can but get broken off anyway +38 mid tone
10. Small Gold Ring +12 Low tone

Keep in mind that the coins lock on and give a repeating sound. In the coin mode the pull tab sound changes as does the ID#, the Screw cap acts very close to the coin even when you lift the coil the sound repeats with a slight tone change. This will be tricky. Note that Iron is a lower tone than nickels and small gold rings, and will null out and not be repeatable.

This a rough guide to follow but actual field use will refine the list.
