Minox AX Gold
The Minox AX Gold is a subminiature camera from Minox, a German maker known for its small-format cameras. It was produced as a limited gold-finish edition aimed at collectors rather than as a general-purpose user camera.
Sales data for the AX Gold is very thin: a single UK auction hammer result from 2013 reached £800, which gives an indicative wholesale price point but not a reliable range for today's market. Because only one saleroom result is on file, what an AX Gold is worth in 2026 will depend heavily on completeness of presentation case and accessories, and current values could sit either side of that figure.

Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Minox AX Gold worth today?
Evidence is limited to a single 2013 UK auction hammer result of £800, so a current value cannot be stated with confidence and depends on condition and completeness.
How much does a Minox AX Gold sell for at auction?
The only recorded UK auction sale in our data sold for £800 hammer, excluding buyer's premium.
Why does the AX Gold price vary so much?
As a gold-finish collector edition, its price is driven by plating condition, original packaging and accessories rather than by photographic use, so comparable examples can sell for very different sums.
