Regardless or price or brand, any metal detector has the ability to detect anything metal-- gold nuggets included. How well a detector detects gold or any metal object depends on the size/shape of the item and how deeply it is buried. Detectors marketed as being best for hunting for gold are built with a higher sensitivity to detecting gold nuggets. The machine has better ground balancing and discrimination abilities, but any detector can find gold if it is a large enough piece and not buried too deep.
