Zeiss Binos

Hiya!,

Am seeking some advice on these binos below.

Just bought a pair of old Carl Zeiss Jenoptem 10x50's, for $140 in the trader.
According to the serial number he gave me on the phone, they were made in 1980.

The guy on the phone tells me the optics look perfect and not dirty at all. What is the realistic shelf life of these coatings on the optics given that these binocluars are 25 years old?

Has anybody used these binos before?

I only wish I could have seen them firsthand, but they were from the interstate trader so I just had to trust that they will work.

Should receive them in the next few days!
