Prakticar Auto 400mm f5.6 M42/YS-LLC Mount Super Telephoto with Case

This lens is in great cosmetic condition with only two small scratches to the paint work along the bottom. The internal surface of the hood is badly scratched and the hood is difficult to move in and out. I suspect this is due to a protruding screw under the hood though it is still usable. The optics are very clear with only a couple of medium marks and some more smaller ones towards the outer edge of the back of the front element. These along with the small amount of internal dust do not affect the image quality. The lens is also missing two none essential parts which are a cover for the step-down button and a control pin for the aperture ring that has broken off, though both controls are still easily usable without them.

There is also a small amount of internal dust that does not affect the image quality.
