<p>[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 1802553, member: 42773"]I've made some noise in the past about collecting a set of Gallienus animal coins, so here we go. Ordinarily I avoid slabbed coins for the hassle of cracking them out, but I had to bid on this panther - it seems to me that panthers with sharp detail are tough in this series. Try to find one as nice as this! Well, you guys probably have a dozen examples...</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://postimage.org/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://postimage.org/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://s12.postimg.org/wg7dvmyl9/panther2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://postimage.org/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://postimage.org/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://s24.postimg.org/ahvko84p1/panther3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>Evidently this collection was offered back in 2002 by Heritage, and reading between the lines, it appears to have been a promotion for ancients in ICG slabs.
