MC is a mount for old Minolta 35mm cameras, starting with the Minolta SR-T 101, along with MD mount. I have a small collection of Minolta MC and MD mount prime lenses ranging from 35mm to 200mm.

For what it's worth, the lens was produced before 1977.

There are adapter for both Nikon and Canon cameras, but both have to have a corrective optic in them to allow the lens to infinity focus. The adapter gives the lens another 1.6x crop factor, but loses a stop of light. It can be used without the corrective optic as an extension tube for macro photography work.

With that lens on a Canon or Nikon APS-C camera with the adapter, you have the 35mm equivalent of 512mm focal length. I've got a 2x teleconverter too for a whopping 1024mm :)
