Early versus late 50 Summilux, which of at least five 35 Summicrons offered etc. One personal example is that many years ago I let a 50 Summicron serial number 92x,xxx go for about $300 not knowing is was a really early production "yellow glass" version. I hope the Japanese buyer is using it as it was a quite decent performer We aren't really that weird, its just with Leica really little details matter.
