I can't believe it was that long ago that these were being sold, seems like just a few years ago to me. just FYI, I believe the AP Star 12's were indeed coated on both lenses, the three that I've owned were all coated. I think some early ad copy mentioned uncoated but the lenses appear to be coated. The Vixen 102F I owned did have the fluorite element uncoated. Good to see that APM in Germany is re-introducing a lightweight 6-inch ED doublet apo, apparently with lenses made by LZOS. hopefully it will become a regular product.
