I could have sworn nuclear transmutation of lead into gold has been done before.

I believe the previous incident used bismuth, rather than lead.

Edit: https://www.aaas.org/taxonomy/term/10/glenn-seaborg-scientist-and-public-servant "Seaborg capped his scientific career in 1980 by transmuting several thousand atoms of bismuth into gold, thus uniting nuclear physics with the ancient field of alchemy."
