Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar f2 58mm in Exakta Mount

I am a film guy. I have collected three old Exakta cameras and I can't seem to find one with a good shutter. So I have nice clear Biotar lens.
Its outside metal has a bit of scuffing but no serious scratches. The filter screw area has a minor dent, but I think a proper filter would still attach.
The good news is that the lens functions correct and smooth. The glass is quite clear...no fungus or haze. There is one tiny speck size scratch on the rear lens.
So I think this would work pretty well with an adapter to a digital camera.
You can look for the one you need, but a quick search shows these: " Adapters for EXA Exakta mount lenses exist for Canon EOS, Nikon F, Sony NEX, micro 4/3 (MFT), Sony Alpha and Pentax-K "
My price $95 plus Priority Mail cost. I will accept returns.

I have a VX1000 that is in good working order. Let me know if you are interested in it. I also have a RTL Exakta but not sure I want to sell it.
