Bought new. The provided case is made of plastic, with a screwed cap; Caution!, the pieces of yellow foam which are used to maintain the lens decompose with time, become sticky and dirty everything!The painting of this lens has a strange aspect, yet it rarely left its box.
I have a great memory of the school of photography with this kind of a lens: the optics teacher had us make tests on our lenses (using test charts), and the Jupiter 11 which equipped one of my schoolmates'Fujica 801 had the best results, better than Nikon ones which equipped our bourgeois friends. That's the way I like the class struggle!
