Leica LTM Rough AR Coating Edges of Lens

[Liquid Fusion]

Voightlander 25mm lens Ebay / Japan - AR Coating not smooth at edges of lens. Do I need to worry about this?

Arrived well packed. Lens OK for - clarity - no haze - no fungus - Fstop ring / focus rings rotate without being loose or too tight. Noticed the green front lens AR coating is rough around the edges. Vintage lens. Cleaned lens with barely wet cotton Q-Tip rubbing lens gently in circular motion until glass became dry as told by the "Angry Photographer" on YouTube.

Looks like something a normal cleaning (by you) would quickly take care of. Have you tried?

Agree. Doesn't look like anything I would be worried about, removing the last vestiges of grub near the ring requires more rubbing than I like to do, mostly, though your lens is very flat. I don't think it affects anything..100% acetone will remove almost anything, including any paint on the rings or if it seeps in, the edge blacking of the elements. Also extremely flammable.

You could also take a closer look at it with a magnifying glass or a reversed wide angle lens (eye to front) to see if it looks weird to you.
