Paint flakes.

Not that unusual in an old Serenar. Where was this camera stored for the last many years?

I've been inside a few Serenar lenses (50mm, 28mm, 135mm). You're in luck. They're all straightforward. Almost enjoyable. The 50/1.8 has a bit of reputation for hazing too. Might as well clean those elements while your inside. Funny, there was a recent thread on this forum about painting inside a lens; I've been using Testors Flat Black and a small decent quality brush. Again, should be no problem. Once you're done with your repairs and cleaning, you will have a really great lens. A favorite of mine.
