Must certainly be the latter version.
Looks like the A design (bevel on front edge)
but no A settings or connections.
The pics don't give me enough info, but
the coatings look like the cool blue of the A
rather than the amber of the M.
Correct?
Sincerely
Check Boz's site, but the bevel on the front edge is your key. Regards, Bob S.

The SMC Pentax 28/3.5 (K series) may well be the sharpest of them
all. It definitely outperforms the A and M 28/2.8.

Scott,
On the M28/2.8: This was my 3rd lens purchase years ago.
I was never very happy with the overall sharpness in my slides and film.
I've had two copies that developed sticky aperture and needed cleaning.
On the A28/2.8: This lens has a plastic aperture ring.
The metal lock-outs
The 2.8 lenses may be only 2/3 stop faster than the f3.5 but that
difference alone would mitigate against using just the K 28 3.5 under
many circumstances. I might use it outside in relatively bright
conditions, but all the inherent sharpness in the world won't make up
for a misfocused image
