Antique Vintage Koch Harmonica
Antique vintage Koch harmonicas are few and far between even on ebay. Last time I looked there were only a handful of auctions available. The Koch chromatic was an inexpensive harmonica from Hohner which took over Koch to eliminate the competition.
Used antique Koch chromatics can sell for about $15.00 used with no box to around $100 in good condition with the original box. A new one sells for about $80.00. Here are a few listings available now.
