I've just purchased a Zorki 3M FOR £30, attached was a lens I don't recognize, it's a TRIXAR ANASTIGMAT 1:3,5 50MM. Can anyone tell me about this lens and is it a valuable find, it's in ex. condition.

nice camera and even nicer lens.
the lens came from the rare italian Wega camera, a Leica copy.
check Kevin Li's site for his inflated prices for that lens.

Thanks for your help, the lens is in really good condition but the focussing barrel needs some lubing what should I use?

clean most of the helical with alcohol and a rag, then lightly lube it with hi temp lithium grease.
most collapsable 50mm Elmar types like your Trixar and I-22s, do not have to be disassembled to re-lube them satisfactorily.
