FS in USA only: 450mm Nikkor Nikon M F9 lens, Like New

NIKKOR-M 450mm F9 Lens, pristine LIKE NEW in every way, complete with
all items including packing and box, 5 months old. This lens provides
exceptional results. $775 + actual cost of insured shipping. I have
extensive positive feedback as photocolor on the famous auction site,
and I thought I'd try to sell the lens direct first.

DETAILS:
This lens (including the glass, shutter, aperture diaphragm, etc.) is
in truly like new condition - optically, mechanically, and
cosmetically. Everything works perfectly, as new. The glass is totally
pristine both front and rear, no marks on the lens housing, etc. It has
never been dropped, banged, nor used in inclement weather or sandy
environments.

Complete with all original items including front and rear caps,
retaining ring, lens board mounting screw (no one I know uses them, but
it's included), blank int'l warranty, instructions, all packing, and
box.

I purchased the lens brand new in the USA, gray market, about 5 months
ago and used it just a few times. The on-film results as inspected on
8x10 Provia and RVP transparencies with my 7x & 20x magnifiers are
superb, and even better than from a Fuji 450/12.5 C lens that I had
before. I'm selling because I'm reducing down to just one lens (a
240mm) for my 8x10, and deploying the money from this sale outside of
photography. The lens was protected by a filter and mounted on a sinar
board (both available separately).

SPECS:
1. Coverage- 52 Degrees, 440mm @F22.
2. Lens construction - 4 elements in 3 groups
3. Aperture - F9 to F128
4. Copal 3 shutter - 1 sec. to 1/125 T and B, flash sync X-contact
5. Weight - 1.4 lbs
6. Flange focal distance approx 428mm
7. Filter size - 67mm
