I need to remove some fence panels that were erected on
earth without gravel boards by the previous owner of my
house.
I will install gravel boards and then re-use the panels.

The panels are nailed into the posts. Can anyone
recommend a method for removing the panels without
damaging them. I have tried running a loose hacksaw blade
down the sides of the panels but the panels are such a
tight fit that the blade jams and buckles. My jigsaw does
not have long enough blades and if it did they would
probably jam and buckle also.

Can you not widen the gap, nail by nail, using a bolster or thin chisel?

You don't need much gap for a hack saw blade.
