I'm with you on this George, there is to my eye quite clearly a dent on the
left side of the top plate, almost precisely on the vertical angle. Not
mentioned in the description? No need, it's clearly visible!

Look at the large picture, right corner next to the rewind knob. Sure looks
like a ding-dent to me.
Perhaps you are the seller and know better than I though :-) Last we
discussed the radioactive lens on this was several years ago and members
were concerned about the yellow color the glass had turned. I can recollect
no collector interest at that time. Now if it was an M series lense, would
be a different story. <g>
