They didn't start putting coins in until 1959 so that might be a tough one. Member Kurt Belle makes a replacement coin for other years though.

Denny, that would be a '59 Grizzly.  My all original '59 Grizzly has the nickel coin.

Nice bows!

Brad

Yes, a '59. Inspect those paper tips very carefully before you start shooting it. They sometimes look ok on the surface but if the finish has started to deteriorate and moisture has gotten in, they can quickly come apart.

In my opinion, the best, quietest shooting bow ever.

Denny,

Finding an original nickel coin might be difficult. Kurt should be able to fix you up with a reproduction replacement coin. If you need his contact info PM me.

Great Bow!  The guys ahead of me answered everything I would have mentioned.

the internet said this bow came with a copper coin. so, that sounds tough to replace to me..

I have a couple 59 Grizzlies now and have owned a couple of others and they all had a nickel medallion. The 59 Kodiaks and Kodiak Specials had the copper coins.
