You're right, jfischer. After awhile the weights feel and sound different. I recently bought a box of Pb ingots and clip-on ingots and I could tell by the way they rattled which was which.
I haven't found too many zinc weights, I think they're getting too expensive to be practical. They're very close to the density of regular clip-ons so I keep my good eye peeled looking for them.
