I only have one Sun lens: it's a 24-40mm F3.5 zoom (K/AR mount).
It's explicitly marked as "multi-coated" (sic) on the lens rim, yet
there is very little if any green color we typically associate with
the best MC formulae.

It's hard to comment on a Sun lens worth. Here in the US, Suns are
rarely seen. Apparently, some of them are quite good. I'm very
happy with my 24-40 zoom performance, although clearly I bought it
because of its zoom range AND very attractive asking price.

Cheers,
