Value?

[murphy12]

I have my grandfather's Contax Zeiss Ikon camera, with built-in light meter. It is fitted with a Sonnar 50mm lens, and also has a Triqtar 8.5cm lens, and a Biogon 21mm lens. There, too, is what I take to be a rangefinder. The body is marked: Stuttgart Germany, T39739. I don't know if the body works, but it, and the lenses, appear to be in superb condition.
I would like to know the value of this set.
Many thanks, Murphy12

A lot depends on condition. I've paid as little as $200 for a working Contax with 50/1.5 lens, sent it in the a cleaning just to make sure it was in top condition. One that is in EX+ or better condition can get $300~$400 realistically. The Biogon can go for as little as $300 in poor condition to $600+ in EX+ and better condition. The triotar is an odd one, small and not as common as the 85/2 Sonnar- but does not fetch as much. I'd guess $100~$200, depending on condition. Post some pictures if you can.
