Hi Piers,

I understand the date code system, but do you really believe that the  
visible
character in my attachment is a "G", and not a "6" ? It looks way too  
round to me,
I am convinced it's a six, even though it makes no sense.

Anyway, I should have it in hand in two days, and then I can be sure :-)
Not bad eh - local seller, selling OM-1n, 24/2.8 and 90/2 Macro for ~ 
$400 for
the lot. I don't really need it, but it's too good a bargain to pass  
by, and
it would save me from sorting out the issues with my current 90/2 Macro.

regards,
Dawid
