This is yellowing, isn't it? Would be some strange kind of coating...

It's the coating, it's a reflection. Old non-smc takumars have that golden look when reflecting. The yellowing would be visible when looking through the lens.
On the left, radiation-yellowed takumar (yellowing seen through the lens), on the right, non-radiactive older takumar model:
On the left, radioactive SMC takumar (probably yellow but we can't see it from this perpctive because we can't see through the lens). On the right, non-SMC takumar, yellow/golden coating reflection but it's the non-radiactive old takumar model:

Wow! Thanks!
I didn't expect such a coating. You know, I do not have a lens with yellowing, so I couldn't tell the difference.
Good to know!
