Coin Challenge - Mammal Tail 1

This coin challenge shows the tail of a mammal.

What is the coin? Is it silver, gold or another metal? Did the coin circulate or is it a commemorative coin? What is the denomination - a penny, nickel, dime, quarter, half dollar, dollar or another coin from early coinage? Is the design from the obverse or reverse of the coin? (Scroll down for hints.)

Coin Challenge October 2011

Hints:

The coin is silver
The picture shows part of a mammal

We added a few more hints in a second post on the blog:

The mammal builds its home in water
The opposite side of the coin shows three men
Two men are shaking hands as if agreeing on a deal

If those weren't enough, a few more hints were added to the blog on the Saturday prior to October's Sunday coin show:

One of the men is a Colonial governor
Another of the men is a mayor
An eagle flies above the handshake deal

What is the image and what coin contains the mammal?

Check the blog between now and October...we'll add more hints.
