It looks like a screw-mount lens for the Olympus FTL (subject of a recent
thread...) I've not seen a 200 come up very often for that mount, it might
be a fairly rare lens. The nomenclature of the lens ring would be right for
that era of Zuiko, and if you're an FTL collector this would be a nice
addition; it would also fit any other M-42 mount camera e.g. Pentax, etc.
