Re: Fujinon 180 A serial number

I'm trying to figure out the year of production of a Fujinon 180 A
lens. I want to know if it's of the single coated or the EBC version.
Could anybody help me with the chronology of thid particular
lens?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It appears that if the lettering is on the inside near the glass it is not EBC
coated and if the lettering is on the outside then it is EBC coated. Although I
am a real fan of the 240A lens I was not as impressed with the 180A and infact
tested it against the 180f5.6 Fuji and chose the latter for infinity type work.
