My Jupiter 9 arrived earlier in the week. The one I've bought is uncoated -
is this standard or was the coating machine broken that day?

We were discussing the Jupiter 9 (85/2) in LTM and its worth as a well made
shooter for the 90 range.
After I raved about mine the other day I dropped mine from about 3 feet
high. I tested it that afternoon on the Bessa R with half a roll of TCN
rated at 800ISO.

The lens is still working as well as ever. (Must have been made on a
Wednesday.)...
