I started a theme like this over at the ancients forum, but why limit the fun when every collector here could play along and contribute coins for this theme? Mascots from all sports teams around the world -- professional and collegiate -- are encouraged. All you have to do is name the team and show the coin! I'll start with Detroit Tigers/LSU Tigers/Cincinnati Bengals! Gallienus, 253-268 AD. Roman Æ Antoninianus, 2.63 g, 20.8 mm, 5 h. Rome Mint, 10th emission, 267-268 AD.
