A guaranteed big return for this golden Leica camera. The camera is being auctioned.
In the field of cameras, you can safely compare Leica with a prestige brand like Rolex. Leica is a brand with a long history and over the years they have also brought out special devices. Including a special edition of the Leica MP, in which the regular parts have been replaced by gold materials. Very cool. A lot of use has also been made of leather for this camera.
The gold Leica MP was released in 2003 within the brand’s M-Series. Such a golden copy is currently up for auction via Leitz† At the time of writing, the highest bid is 13,000 euros. The price will increase considerably, because the auction still has more than 23 days to go.
This auction is for charity. The proceeds will benefit charities in Germany and Austria. In addition to the gold Leica MP, the purchase also comes with a certificate of authenticity.
The buyer will undoubtedly not shoot photos with this device. The golden Leica is a collector’s item. This will be given a nice spot somewhere in the middle of a collection or for decoration in a room. And rightly so, because it is a beautiful camera.
