The silver one, depending on the angle I look, is blue/purple or green. The black ones, are all blue/purple.

Re: Unknown Plossls
The barlow was the worst piece in the lot, and full of dust. If I had to guess, going by it's condition when I got it, it was left in a focuser for many years. The scope it was in, was likely near where people, or children would pass by frequently, and fiddle with it, which eventually wore the chrome plating off the barrel. I completely disassembled it, and gave it multiple soakings in distilled water to clean it up. It looks rough, but, it's in good optical and mechanical condition. A great addition to my "I could care less" equipment ;-)Lady Fraktor wrote: ↑Wed Dec 11, 2019 6:58 am That is one well used barlow with the chrome plating worn off like that.
