By the serial number I would say a 69. Value? Best I could tell you would be go to the completed listing on the big auction site and type in Grizzly. See if you can find one similar.

Bill,

 That does look like 62 AMO is written there. I believe the last year for 62" was 1963. This bow doesn't resemble a 63 or any Grizzly prior to that. I believe the only year for the 56" was 1970 all the rest after 63 were 58".

That doesn't look like a 62" bow. Also a 1969 should have gray glass, strange.

A rare mismarked Grizzly with the shelf cut on the wrong side!   :biglaugh:  Nice hunting weight.  Someone will like that bow.
