The Panther, by Ogden Nash
The panther is like a leopard,
Except it hasn't been peppered.
Should you behold a panther crouch,
Prepare to say Ouch.
Better yet, if called by a panther,
Don't anther.

Mainly gold and silver. While searching for that answer, I found this webpage: The Western Miner: A Photo Collection. Lots of interesting photos (including the one above) and related content:
