There was a 38/3.5 labeled
OLYMPUS OM-SYSTEM ZUIKO MC MACRO 1:3,5 f=38mm 202669

It seems unlickely that Olympus would replace a MC 38/3.5 with a
single coated 38/2.8.

Watching for serial nos. on the macro lenses doesn't yield much data
very quickly. Few auctions have adequate pictures to show how the lens
is marked.

If your 38/2.8's are labeled different from
OLYMPUS OM-SYSTEM ZUIKO AUTO-MACRO 38mm 1:2,8 101006 Japan

would you please send me exact labels? Thank you,
