I have no reason to believe that my current Leica M lenses are not multi-coated (my 1.4/50 Summilux-M is probably not, but I'd have to run down its production date to get a feel for this). I own a slew of Leica literature and a slew of books about Leica and I am not willing at the nonce to jump over and start digging through them to lock down the details. But, as you say, we do not know. I would suggest that all Leitz/Leica lenses made after 1975 were multi-coated. But, again, I am hungry to learn more.
