Actually that's interesting you should say that Paul- I'd say I've been keeping a reasonably close eye on eBay for the past year or two, and not once have I ever seen the SMC F 50 1.4 ever come up. The 1.7 is a lot more common it seems.
Not that it's conclusive, but photodo scores the FA at 4.2 while the F at 4.6 too. I was considering putting the lens on eBay for plenty more just to try my luck as the finances are wearing a bit thin. I'm guessing there's a good chance a collector out there really wants it. Not sure if I'll go through with it though, it's brilliant hardware..
