I got my first Yashica SLR it was paired with a pentcon lens in the sale. Which lens was original paired with this camera?
I’ve seen some manual photos and it looks like a 50mm f/1.7 auto Yashinon
Is this correct?

The closest Yashica dealer sheet I have is from May of 1972, and it shows kits for both the Electro ITS-X and X series, and the TL-Super models. There were 3 base kits for ITS-X / X, as 1.2, 1.4, and 1.7, with 2 kits for the TL-Super, as 1.4 and 1.7. All lens models for all kits are listed as Auto Yashinon DX 50mm. The earlier TL standard series presumably would have the same set of 1.4 and 1.7 lenses for both kits, although the barrel finishes may have been a mix of either the all chrome types (early releases, in 68-69ish) or the chrome/black paint models (middle releases), or in all black paint (from 71-ish).
