Are E lenses the sames as MC lenses?

I recently ordered a used 50mm f2.8E lens for my ETRS, and that was what I expected to receive!

 

<p>

 

The advert said 50mm f2.8 E and the supplier's invoice says 50 f2.8E but the lens itself is marked MC, unlike my 75mm lens which is marked EII.

 

<p>

 

Presumably MC stands for multi-coated.

Info elsewhere on this site, and other sites on the Internet, seems to suggest that there are 4 different lenses (ie MC, E, EII and PE) for the Bronica.

Should my supplier have sent me an E lens? Have I been conned, or am I being paranoid?

Update ...

 

<p>

 

Several dealers have told me that all 50mm Bronica "E" lenses were marked "MC", and that this lens has since been replaced by the "PE".

I'm grateful to them for this clarification, and to my supplier MXV for giving me a full refund. I have now bought a "PE" lens.
