It is rare when compared to other Hektors (all things being equal) but not so rare that the price is high, since I have it offered at $140. Roy Moss told me that he had paid over $200 for his, some years back. The serial #656574 would place it being made in 1948 at the same time that Leitz, Wetzlar was using the so called "shark or fish skin vulcanite" on their IIICs. I will probably be getting so many calls on it now that I will offer it to the highest bidder (LOL). Marvin Moss
