I bought my Minolta CLE and the Minolta Rokkor 28, 40, & 90 mm lenses back in 1981. The 28 did develop those spots in the first five or ten years. I sent the lens to Minolta and they fixed it. I don't know if they replaced the front lens element or what, but when I got the lens back, the spots were gone. I have now had the lens for 37 years and the spots have never returned. The lens is clear like a brand new lens after 37 years. If you have an opportunity to purchase the 28 mm lens without spots now, I would recommend buying it.
