I recently got a Trioplan - 50mm F/2.9 Serial#1194011 with 12 blades and Exakta mount, however this lens appears to be different than any other Trioplans I've seen online. This version has a fixed rear element that does not move. The lens focuses by rotating the front ring/element, similar to old rangefinder cameras. Has anyone used this version? Any different than the standard focusing version? Also is it rare? Any additional info would be appreciated.

Is there any difference in sharpness, contrast and/or bokeh between the trioplan 50/2,9 and the domiplan 50/2,8?

I don’t know. I haven’t had a chance to use it yet. I just received it earlier this week.

You will get more fun with this front cell focusing Trioplan. You can use a helicoid or AF adapter if you want to make it unit focusing.
