Best of luck to you.  I have run across bags of 90 Elmar LTM's and nearly
all of them had front elements with at least a few concentric "wipe"
marks.  I bet there are coincidentally an equal number of
perfect-condition un-used UV filtres out there ; ) (actually this lens
has a somewhat cold rendition so a skylight filtre isn't a bad idea with
Kodachrome).  I finally found an Elmar with perfect glass, but I ended up
paying USD $200 for it because it was also in near-mint cosmetic
condition. 

Regards,
Nigel
