Hello everyone. Recently I purchased a lens on eBay. The person (camera shop) who sold the lens described it as without any fungus or haze. Once it arrived I noticed something which looks to me but I am not a specialist like a part of inner lens (just below the first element) has been scratched on the edge which seems unrealistic. It is inside the lens not on top of the glass. It looks like it is where the second glass element is touching the inner part (metal part) of the lens just at the rim. Like if you had a piece of glass and scratched it just at the rim. So now am thinking what this may be. Unfortunately I can't check now if the issue has any impact on the photos as I sold my camera a week ago and I am moving to a different system. I can return the lens and I have few more days to test it out but I want your professional opinion what this may be. As you will notice on my horrible photos that the issue has some sort of a colour gradient which looks like a rainbow, maybe it is the coating? The lens is Zeiss 28mm f2 and I don't really want to return it as I got a pretty good price but maybe I should? Please help.

Mine problem looks similar but is deeper in the lens. Here is a photo I found: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8oyg1TMd8kDeXUzWTRwWXVGLUU/view?usp=sharing Thank you.
