Please make this level faster for subsequent characters, rather than slower as it is now.

This is another tedious grind that I’d be happy to buy the skill like after doing it once. And I’m only doing it once. My new baby toon gets her gold leads dug up by my one level everything character.
I spent about 6 hours in Artaeum yesterday and got the skill line to 5 for a level 15 Arcanist. Watched a series on the other monitor. Not an ideal gamestyle but it got the job done

Whole new expansion released, with a ton of new content and you're recommending people to spend six hours in Artaeum?

I agree
I'm thinking they didn't allow the purple leads on subsequent characters to do away with easy gold making.
If so, I'd favor giving the purple leads for XP and just removing any gold value on subsequent characters
If the first character can get purple leads for XP, I don't see why the others shouldn't be able to as well.

But I'm not. I hate having to switch characters to dig up leads I find and it's been happening frequently with my new character in the new zones.
Even though I do not hate leveling these skilllines, I do think ZOS needs to add a new item to level excavation somewhat faster.
Idea: The first time in a zone we can get one purple item which sells for 5k, after we have dug this up replace this item with a purple excavator's coin. Which grants the same exca/scry exp as the 5k item, but is repeatable and only sells for 500-750g. This item only re-appears after digging up a blue item. (Note: These coins were placed at excavation sites by the antiquarian circle, so newcomers can gain quicker experience with digging things up)

But you don't have to do it straight away - leads last for 30 days. If you insist on digging them up straight away, that is by choice.
Besides, level 10 is only needed for top level (ultimate) leads, you can dig master leads up at level 7 if you have put skill points into the skill lines. I can't recall the last time I had a lead requiring level 10.

I believe that once an account has maxed the antiquity skills on one character they should earn a buff that gives double the points for future characters leveling the skill line. They made the leads account bound so any of our characters can dig them up, so why not?

Why not make all of the skill lines like that then?
