Serial number engraved either on camera underbody, either on the bottom of shutter housing.

Lens: Triplet-43 4/40

Quantity: 21.041.191 units (with Smena-8 camera).

Several different versions: commemorative, latin only red text, cyrillic only red text, black name plate (beware of fakes!) and Cosmic-35M for UK-export
