The one you want is from the Pantex "110 Auto", the 18mm
(that camera came with 3 lenses, you want the middle one. The 50mm is way too big and somehow the 24mm is too small).

There's one on eBay right now, on a BIN for £19.99. (Not mine, btw, just came up on a search.)

Do the 7 numbers around the edge of the lens mean anything. i have found one that looks the same but the numbers are different.
I dont want to buy it and it not be the correct one.

Afaik, the only important text is Pentax 110, 1:2.8 and 18mm.
