I'm looking at buying a couple of STM version of Canon EF-S lenses but googling around, it doesn't seem like they state STM on the barrel?
From what I can gather, neither of the 18-55 IS mk1 (I owned mk1 years ago) or mk2 state which revision they are on the barrel and these along with the STM all look physically the same.
I just want to make sure the lenses adverstised on a ebay are what they state they are.
 
Its always written on the face of the lens.
Like this picture from google images:

Whole page of them if you do a google image search.

For example:

Thanks for that, there aren't any photos of the front of the lens on the ones I am watching.
