Well, I made the fumble of dropping my MC Kern with sweaty hands on a hot trail, and scratched the front coatings, but still sold it for more than it cost me brand new; and the purchaser (a dealer) still had to pay for the recoating before raising the price even more. I wanted the single-coat version anyway by that point, which was a lot more affordable then than now, even for a mint example. "Cult lenses".
