Olympus OM-System Zuiko Auto-W 21mm 1:3.5 118444 Japan
Now is it MULTI-COATED I wonder ?!?!?!?! >>

I thought it might be a relatively recent lens, since it is quite a high
serial
number and there was no "G." and no "MC" either. That is good, then! I had
better get it! This morning, I got my Zuiko MC 25mm f/2 from the same guy
and it looks as near to perfect as can be for any used lens. Nice case, and
a 'free' mint Eyecup 1 too!
Thanks for the advice.
