Do lead and gold have the same tone? is there something I'm missing they both sound the same to me.

They sure sound like nuggets on many machines, infact I suggest lead can be used to test a detector for gold if you can't find a real gold nugget.

Try some small bits of lead, then if you can get a small gold nugget of the same weight, bet you can't tell the differences

Good Luck Bob.
