Yes, that agrees with the multi-coating survey 
<http://brashear.phys.appstate.edu/lhawkins/photo/mc-sc.survey>, except 
you have left off a zero at the end. As you can see, there were 
intermediate serial numbers that were "ZUIKO MC", before they dropped 
the "MC" as all lenses were multi-coated.

I also used to have both a SC and a MC version. The SC, however, had 
several different coating reflection colors inside, quite similar, in 
fact, to the MC in that regard. But the reflections were all quite a bit 
less bright on the MC lens. The difference in brightness, less 
reflection, was much more noticeable than color differences.
