Source: I have a bunch of body jewelery and been through a bunch of metal detectors and never set any off.

It's a pain if they go off every time someone walks through with an earring or a metal button or zipper. But people do use metal detectors to reliably find bottle caps, jewelry, coins, etc, under several inches of sand and soil.
