New E-Trac user and and finally 'whupped' my hunting buddy who is a Whites DFX swinger. It was a cold hunt (~35 degrees, breezy but no moisture) and we were in it for approx. 4-5 hrs. I plucked 5 silvers to his 3 silvers & 1 gold. I know, I know...gold > silver, but when I was swinging an ATP, I couldn't approach his numbers. After today's hunt, I had 3 sterling rings, 1 sterling pendant and a first...a '43 S Walking Liberty halve. He pulled 1 sterling ring, 1 14k ring, a sterling belt tip and a sterling pendant. Funny thing, both pendants and one of my rings were James Avery products. The half dollar was my 4th, but my first silver and a WL to boot!!! You can't tell from the pic (sorry camera/poor photographer) but it's in pretty good shape...I'd grade it F12 with only minor blemishes/normal wear. Here's the proof. Thanks for looking and HH.

I like the St. Christopher , and I'd guess the other Avery is the "crown of thorns " ring . (He's fairly collectible ) Nice Finds !

Winner, winner, chicken dinner...YES, the 'other' Avery is the 'crown of thorns" ring in the middle. My hunting buddy, recovered an Avery pendant (don't know its name/ID but was a descending Dove).

E-trac is an awesome machine. I recently upgraded from an MXT Pro. So much more silver! Congrats on your finds.
