Kunik Petie Gold

The Kunik Petie Gold is a German subminiature camera, a gold-finished version of the Petie line of small-format cameras produced in the 1950s. It was a novelty-grade subminiature aimed at the gift and souvenir market rather than at serious photographers.

Sales data for the Petie Gold is extremely thin: a single 2008 UK auction record shows a hammer price of £220 at saleroom level (wholesale, before commission). With only one data point, today's value is best treated as indicative rather than a reliable market price, and what a Petie Gold is worth now will depend heavily on cosmetic condition, presence of the original case, and collector demand on the day.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Kunik Petie Gold worth today?

Available UK auction evidence is limited to a single 2008 hammer result of £220, so any current value is indicative only and a clean, complete example could sell for more or less depending on condition and bidder interest.

How much does a Petie Gold sell for at auction?

The only recorded UK auction sale in our data achieved a hammer price of £220, which gives a rough reference point for the price a comparable example might fetch.

What affects the value of a Petie Gold?

Condition of the gold finish, working shutter, and the presence of original accessories such as the case and box are the main factors that drive the price this subminiature commands.
