According to my Leica International Price Guide, the old one is worth 350 DM and the new one 600 DM (I am giving you European prices since you are located in Greece). I think for the old lens this may even be an overestimate; they are very common. I got mine with the Leicaflex SL for 16000 BEF (400 EUR) for the set.
