I been eying de Topcon lenses for a while. Seen some great pics on this forum.
I have the opportunity to buy a Topcon Topcor Lens 53mm f/2.0 for 20 euros.

Is this a good lens ? or rather wait for another topcon lens ?

I think that's from a Topcon Unirex or similar model that used an interlens shutter. It's not the same optic as those on the RE series and the mount is unique to it. The aperture control was on the camera body. Maybe difficult/impossible to adapt to any DSLR and I don't recall seeing a mirrorless adapter for the fitting.

Adaptation difficult, but possible. Needed Topcon camera body and lathe.

Thx guys. I cancelled the order. It seems too difficult.
