There is indeed an M28/2.8 Type II lens.
The aperture and glass is the same as the A28/2.8, but no A setting.
That's a well known variation and desirably sharper than the M28/2.8.
I've never hears of an M50/1.4 version A variation.

There is an odd "type 2" M28 that appears to be an A lens in all
respects, except lacking the "A" setting and connections which gives
even more evidence of being made in a "transitional" period, so I
would guess that your original "transitional" theory is likely the
correct one. It would be interesting to know the serial number and see
how far off it is from the earliest A lenses.

Who is to say that all the parts are original?
"A" glass does not fit the "M" package. The glass carrier system is
entirely different.

all the M50mmf1.4 I have owned have had a bluish tint to the coatings.
To get amber you have to go back to the super-takumar version of the
50mmF1.4
