What it is
{"overview":"The Minox Riga is the original subminiature camera produced by Minox, designed by Walter Zapp and introduced in the late 1930s in Riga, Latvia. As of 2026 the price a Riga 12 Teeth sells for at saleroom level is highly condition-sensitive, and the small sample size means individual results can swing well outside that band depending on completeness and cosmetic state.","buying_guide":"Inspect the metal body for dents and corrosion, check the shutter for accurate operation across speeds, and confirm the film transport advances cleanly. Originality matters to value, so look for matching serial numbers and period-correct accessories such as the case and chain.

Questions
Why is the "12 Teeth" variant noted separately?
Collectors identify early Riga production by the tooth count on an internal component, and the 12-tooth examples are catalogued as a distinct variant within the pre-war Minox subminiature family.
