Kodeks Leicester (juga dikenal sebagai Kodeks Hammer) adalah koleksi karya ilmiah karya Leonardo da Vinci. Kodeks ini mengambil nama dari Thomas Coke, Earl of Leicester, yang membelinya pada tahun 1719. Kodeks ini merupakan yang paling terkenal di antara 30 karya ilmiah Leonardo Da Vinci. Karena itu, nilainya menjadi sangat tinggi. Pada 11 November 1994, Bill Gates membelinya seharga US$30.802.500 dari balai lelang Christie's di New York.
