<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 1792062, member: 42773&quot;]I like your theory, Doug, on the sheer ground of grotesque humor. I heard Paul Harvey&#039;s voice after reading your post: &quot;...and now you know the rest of the story&quot;. It&#039;s one of those things that really should be true, even if it isn&#039;t.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;m the one that originally asked the question, but since then, I&#039;ve discovered that RR silvers have presented a veritable menagerie over the course of their issue. Seaby catalogs all sorts of flora that have appeared under horses: bulls, dogs, dolphins, gryphons, hogs, owls, and flies, to name a few (Seaby I, 20ff).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Seaby merely catalogs the pieces, and doesn&#039;t attempt to ascribe any symbolic or historic significance to the animals. Probably someone has suggested a meaning to them at some point in numismatic scholarship, but I haven&#039;t really looked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
