Panthers On Coins?

Awesome coin - I love that design. Just to clarify the whole catamount thing, although both Canadian lynx (Lynx canadendsis) and the cat on the back of that coin above are both called "catamounts" they are not related. The Vermont catamount, Felis concolor, is a mountain lion (also referred to as a cougar, panther, puma). This is not related to short-tailed cats in the genus Lynx.

"Panther" has different meanings in different places -

Panthera, the feline genus which contains lions, tigers, leopards and jaguars

Panther (in Africa and Asia), the leopard (Panthera pardus)

Panther (in North America), the cougar or mountain lion (Puma concolor) Florida panther, a subspecies of cougar (Puma concolor coryi or Puma concolor couguar) found in southern Florida

Panther (in South and Central America), the jaguar (Panthera onca)

Black panther, a black variant of leopard, jaguar or cougar

White panther, a white or very pale variant of leopard, jaguar or cougar

Panther (legendary creature), a mythical creature resembling a large multicolored cat
