Mark,

The IIIf started at 525xxx.

511xxx was a IIIc

Your 4 digit A to D sounds like a find. 1926-1927.

If you got the 5cm Hektor thrown into the $800 pile you did good.

The Leotax with RS Elmar sounds pretty cheap if it's in good shape.  
That's pretty close to the Elmar alone.

The Black III with chrome Elmar sounds about right if in EX shape.  
Both common.

I don't get involved with Canon or Contax stuff.

Good Luck,
Len
