I recently acquired this lens, but I cannot figure out the exact mount on the lens, does anyone know? I was told by the seller that it was for a Nikon camera. However, this mount looks nothing like the Nikon mount with the Rabbit ears.

When asking lens identification questions, it's helpful to identify all the engraved lettering on and around the lens.

Lens is made by Kiron. I had a copy with a Nikon mount. It was pretty sharp, but got rid of it because I prefer another lens that covers the same focal length. Here's a photo that was taken with it. (I agree with scottbb, your copy has OM mount.)

I believe this is an Olympus OM mount lens. The lens release button and aperture stop-down button opposing each other are a dead giveaway. Also, unless I'm mistaken, the engraved lettering in the first picture says something like "for O/OM"... ?
You are absolutely correct @scottbb. It was right in front of my face and I didn't even realize it. thank you so much!
