Leica 13.5cm f4.5 Hektor 853951

This Leica 13.5cm f4.5 Hektor telephoto prime lens (Silver), #853951, is in below-average cosmetic condition with significant wear from normal use. I rate it cosmetically an (8). The aperture ring is smooth and the aperture functions properly, but the focusing helicoid is a bit stiff. The glass is clean and clear with no haze, marks, or fungus. There are a few faint specks of dust inside, but they do not affect image quality. The focusing helicoid has a matching serial number. It is for Leica screw mount/thread mount (LTM) and other E39 bodies. This lens includes a metal Leica front cap and a generic metal rear cap. This lens is ready for use! Please refer to the photos for details.
