Right before I left for my trip I bid and won on a defective 90/4.0
Elmar on the auction place. It was a black one and I was warned that
it would need cleaning. It cost less than $35 so I did it more or less
on a chance.

It was waiting for me when I got back and looked as desribed. I took
it apart and cleaned it, but couldn't get the stains in the coating
off on one of the inner elements.

One thing led to another and I ended up with an Elmar for the M as
well (the lense cost about the same as an LTM->M adapter would have).
The 90 Elmars are pretty cheap. Probably for good reasons:

All Tri-X and HC110.
