I saw a picture on a trade side and seller is not really forthcoming with any info. He is selling all sort of junk and just knows it's a "camera".

The Minolta CLE has the Leica M Mount. The lens is longish, maybe 90mm. It's NOT a M-Rokkor, and it's not any of the know Leica lenses. It's not a Voigtländer. Lens cap is saying Olympus - but I think that's just the cap.

Any guesses?

Well, sold for US$800 - seems somebody knew the real value.
