The last Panther that was restored was raised from the bottom of a river in Poland. In truth there were not that many Panthers and Tigers built, there are far more Panzer MKIII and MkIV available. The tank that was produced in the most numbers was the M4 Sherman, four every 3 Shermans destroyed, one Tiger was destroyed. The Germans called them Ronsons, the American and British tankers that crewed them called them suicide boxes.
