I've just received this Nikon 50 1.4 from Keh. Well, it seems there's no way to take out the rear cap!
Is there any particular trick that I'm suddenly missing??

You turn cap clockwise to loosen right. Somebody must have overtightened it.
The lens may need to be put in a vise (just the cap side) and turned apprpriately. I have had to cut them off carefully in the past, after nothing worked.
