Metal detectors are different and my main advice would be to look into the manual of the metal detector you purchased. Sometimes there are settings where you can configure your detector to only respond to certain metal characteristics. If you got a really basic metal detector one of the prime methods is to simply investigate by digging up the object in question.

A Geiger counter usually has two detectors, especially in a two-piece bench type. The main detector is usually an ionizable gas in a metal tube.
There are a number of metal detectors currently available on the market and vary greatly in price and effectiveness depending on what one is willing to spend.
