I've found this Yashica mat 124g with the golden logo on the top. As I've seen quite a few of these cameras in these years, I've never come across one with the golden logo. Does anybody have any info? Thanks.

PS: it's not as yellow as in the picture, the golden area is only inside the circle, the edge of the circle and the Y is the classic silver color.

Contact Mark Hama in Atlanta. He should know. He repairs Yashicas TLR and worked at the factory building them.

I just looked at my 124G and it has the gold logo but it is the circle and the Y that are gold colored. The area inside the circle, surrounding the "Y", is black leatherette.
