Picked up this #488744 Sharkskin IIIc today.

It has the usual chrome pitting, mostly on the bottom plate.

It came with the weird/funny looking ever-ready case with room for a VIOOH finder mounted on top of the camera.

In the ever-ready case's pocket was an Import Certificate issued by E. Leitz Inc. guaranteeing that import duties had been paid and upon showing the certificate to the customs, you are ensured re-entry to the USA without having to pay duty again.
Strangely relevant today.

To continue on this post,Jerzy I don't know if you've kept up with the serial numbers of these sharkskin. I'm adding a few photos of my IIIC Sharkskin “quer” N° 464086. This coating may be unpleasant to the touch but it seems indestructible!
