Only the early Panther G's had the zimmerit anti magnetic paste on them. The application of the paste was discontinued before the final production (Late) Panther G's were introduced.

Obe has a point there, but I would like to say look in your referecnes for pics, I thought all Late A's had Zimmerit till I look at an old book I had on the Panther family of tanks. I found a pic of of a Panther rolling past the roman Colisium, and it didn't have smattering of zimmerrit applied to it. Upon further parusel through my book I found a pic of a train heading for the eastern front with some panthers loaded on board, alas not all the panthers had the patse applied either. So its always good to search the web and your favorite books for pics! stug
