UK seller, I think it was listed for $1900 but not sure it sold. It had a scratch on the rear element and oil on the blades.

Interesting, Raid. When did you acquire that lens, perhaps from Johan? I think that's the one I sold him.

Yes, I got this lens from Johan. It is a very nice looking lens, by the way.

Who currently owns my old lens, #181787?
Hahahaha that looks pretty painful 😱
Just added the new serial numbers to the list. Interesting to see a few lenses doing the rounds of RFF members!

So incestuous.
Similar to genes, it's less like a lens pool around here and more like a lens puddle.
That concisely sums up what I was thinking!
"Welcome to the RFF lens puddle"
... sounds kinda gross
Yes, that's about as primo of a 60 year old lens as can be!
The best ones need to stay in the RFF puddle. 😉

Here's mine, Jon.
The image isn't showing for me now. Anyway, it's 181939, with a C.
Thanks James. I just added it.
1533 difference between earliest and latest s/n's. Not many at all, and I think due to manufacturing defects etc. its unlikely Nikon used every serial number in the block, so maybe the actual number of lenses is only 90% to 95% of that.

I have! I got it off eBay from a chap in Japan in March last year. RFF puddle indeed.

Pete,
The world is not that big. LOL.
BTW I hooked up Ben above with his lens. I told him if he ever sells it, we are no longer friends. LOL.

181326 with a "C" was recently sold at the Tamarkin auction (Sadly. I didn't win it and the search continues...)
