Glenn, mine is definitely one of the later manufactured bodies, with the metal surround on the front, serial number on the back, and the short spring plate on the bottom. It does however have the rangefinder from an earlier model with a serial number on top, so this one has been worked on before. Who knows, maybe it has an earlier lens mount on it also? But I put my new rear lens cap on the I-22 and I-26, and it fits both with no problem. This was after the force-fitting of the I-26.

Tore it down last night to see where the film scratching was coming from, and found a couple nicks on the casing either side of the film frame opening. Now waiting for paint to dry after touching up the area.
