Title: Wanted: Bear 59 copper coin
Post by: ckruse on February 04, 2006, 02:14:00 PM

I realize this is kind of like asking for your first born.  :help:   I'm needing a flat copper coin for a '59 Kodiak I picked up recently. This is the one that was used only in 59 and in just a few 60 models. I will pay a fair price for a good one, or we could do some trading perhaps. I might have an extra item or two you could use. Please let me know by P/M, and if you have any doubt about what you have email me a picture. A big thank you to all the friends I have made here over the last couple of years. You guys have helped me in many ways! CKruse   :thumbsup:

You may try 3rivers archery out of Ashley IN.  I have seen a reproduction type coin in their catalog.  You can find them online at 3riversarchery.com

Hope this helps...

Thanks, but that's the newer brass coin that they sell. The one I'm looking for is this one:

It might take me a while to come up with one, but anything less would be like putting mudflaps on a Corvette!   :eek:

I bought one last summer off of Steve Smith in Wheeling WV.  He might have some more but they aren't cheap.  I had to give 50 bucks for mine.   His e-mail address is [email protected]

I'm pretty sure that is his email address!  Good Luck!

Good idea, I hadn't thought to contact Steve. I've bought a bow from him in the past, and visit via email from time to time. Thanks, CKruse
