I have the chance to pick-up an older Rodenstock 90mm f/6.8 for $200. It has the "chrome ring" around the Copal shutter, and the serial number is 9478956. I think that is a late 70's model. Glass and shutter check out fine. Anything to be concerned about regarding multi-coating from that era? The price seemed really good. Thoughts?
