 Yes, it's the 85mm F1.5.....................the bubble bokeh or however one describes it's effect is certainly a lot stronger than my 44-2 58mm F2 Helios which gives about a 1/3rd of the effect of the 85mm.

  That lens though is rarer and commands a higher S/H price on ebay and so far I've yet to see one on my "Le Bon Coin" site here in France, ironically, as I said in an earlier post in this thread the Helios 85mm is  now available new on ebay for 314 euros/£250 plus postage.......it looks very nice and is built like a  tank (a T34)  and "cocks a snook" price wise at some of the kick-start recent offerings.

The effect is pleasing though in the photo link you posted, similar to a fish-eye lens it's really for occasional use so buying cheap is the way to go, keeping my eye out at the flea market though.
