Nikon FM Gold Dummy

The Nikon FM Gold Dummy is a non-functional display version of the FM, a 35mm manual-focus SLR. Dummies of this kind were produced for shop-window display rather than photographic use, and the gold-finished variant is a collector-oriented presentation piece.

With only a single recorded UK auction result, the price evidence is thin: one example sold at hammer for £1,600 in 2014, which is the only data point available as of today. As a wholesale saleroom result rather than a retail figure, this gives a rough indication of value but should not be read as a reliable market median given how rarely these dummies appear.

Sales History

Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
