Hmm, sure that lens comes from a Nocta IR camera. About its rear barrel, I'm
going to ask a friend which owns a Nocta unit (camera+lens).
Later,

Whew! It took some googling but I finally tracked this one down. It
looks like the lens from a Pentax Nocta from 1966, which is part-way
down this page:

Any comments, Dario?
As rare as it must be, the starting price on this auction looks
ludicrously high. Terms such as "IR focusing system" and "image
intensifier" came up in references to this lens. It seems like that
function of the lens has gone out-of-service and has been replaced
with a simple mounting tube which looks unoriginal and most
un-Asahi-like in its style and finish.

Strange, never seen, unknow: NC (?) Takumar 1:3.3 (?) 300 mm
It has been changed, but the ring marking seems real...
