1962-63 Fed 3 (type a)  is an intermediate model between the Fed 2 and the final Fed 3b. The left side resembles the Fed 2, and the right side of the stepped top plate, the later Fed 3.  The high shutter speed dial is unusual and characteristic of this model only. This version of the Fed 3 was not in production for long and is subsequently uncommon. This example has the correct f2.8 / 52mm Fed Industar 26M lens.
