seems the question still is unanswered. he asked about jewelry and he got numbers for coins.
from what i've seen you can't give static numbers for jewelry. there's just to many variables in alloys and shapes. the coin list is very good info to have and if your target doesn't meet any of those numbers and doesn't dive straight into fer. then all you can do is dig to find out what made all the noise. jmo

Thanks magicman for putting together a list for the explorer . I have the explorer II does this list pertain to it too? Could you email me the list so I can laminate for reference thank you sir.

Couple files that were posted by Critterhunter. He's got the original excel files if you need them.

I am not a numbers guy but here are some from an old time member here. Not a huge compilation of Jewelry but, you might like them for reference.
Have not seen him around in a long time but, here is one he posted years ago.
