I'm interested. Can I see the lens in person?

WOW. Only the second one of these posted in past 12 months. These are rare beasts...

This would be the third... Clayton Haskell (did he ever sell or did Clay keep it? I know he was agonizing over it.), Greg M (I purchased this one--it was in immaculate shape, Greg was great to work with and he really took care of me!) and now this one. Honestly, I would buy this right now just to have two of these! Someone should snag this ASAP!

Good luck with your sale Keith!
 
I have some doubts about the rarity of this lens.
The serial number of this one is http://www.reduser.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=37174&d=1365790139 is

3839 072 so lets suppose that this one is the first one that Leica ever produced (highly impossible)
3839 117 http://www.setadelstudios.com/images_p/20569/3.jpg
3839 318 http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTA2N1gxNjAw/z/SAcAAOSw-jhUGEVq/$_57.JPG
3839 531 http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NjQ2WDgwMA==/z/tm0AAOSw34FVD7PX/$_57.JPG

so if we suppose that 531 was the last one ever made and 072 is the first one that tells me that at least 459 lenses were made.
Which in reality should be at least 500 pieces and no 200-300 as people claim...
