Leica 50mm f2 Summicron Dual Range, Light Seperation 1531874

This Leica 5cm f2 Summicron M Dual Range Lens (Silver), #1531874, is in great condition with minor handling wear. I rate it cosmetically a (9). The aperture ring is smooth, the aperture functions properly, and the glass has no haze, marks, or fungus. There's some light separation and a few faint specks of dust inside. The focusing helicoid is smooth in both ranges. This lens includes a threaded third-party lens hood and a rear lens cap. Please refer to the photos for details.
