I assume that MIJ means Made in Japan? In that case, I can confirm.

Well, the were all made in Japan.  "miJ" is shorthand for the last, and best,  of the five (or six) major versions. Serial number on the lens mount, not the front, over ~5,000,000

Earliest version was pretty poor; ask me how I know. Last are brilliant. Most marked "MC" had a lubricant that migrated over the years to the diaphragm mechanism, making it sticky.
