Authenticate This BOTTEGA VENETA

Hi everyone! Can you all help me, please? :) I'm concerned. I just purchased a Bottega Veneta Intrecciato bag with grommet embellishment from Rebag. I received it 2 days ago and I'm trying to figure out why I don't have a Botegga Venta label inside the bag or have a zip pocket like the ones I see online with the serial number sewned inside that pocket? I do not know the age of this bag. It is lined in a thin suede (thin but nice) and although there is no pocket, it came with a suede pouch (like what the LV Neverfulls come with). Inside the pouch there is a white label with the serial number but there is absolutely nothing on the bag itself. The pouch is connected to a leather strip (I can easily untie it) and that leather strip is solidly attached to the inside of the bag. Should I be concerned about the authencity? I just find it odd that the interior is so much different then what I see online with no label or serial tag attached. If this pouch was not included with the bag there would be nothing. Here is the link and I have a few detailed pics as Rebag did not post much. Thanks for all your help as it is VERY MUCH appreciated! :) The tag is inside the pouch, not the bag. The bag has NO pocket. Both zippers have RiRi.

This is an authentic Spring 2005 Goatskin Rivets Medium Veneta in Bianco. :flowers:
It was the special, seasonal Veneta done that season.
It might be one of the only Venetas that ever came with an attached pouch, I assume because the rivets go through the lining, there was no space to add a pocket, and at the time this bag was made, the heatstamp formed part of the interior pocket.

Wow! Thank you! Wow how do you know all of this? It's amazing! I searched and goggle and did not find details like what you have. Wow, it's from 2005?! Wow! It's in AMAZING condition! I didn't expect it to be that old! Lol. Thank you for taking the time to reply to my request and ease my mind! Right! It makes sense, now that you mention it, that the pocket may have deliberately been omitted due to the grommets. Wow I'm embarrassed I didn't think of that but instead went into a panic! Hahaha. I really like this bag! I see there is a white studded version at Neimans. Thanks again! Now I can sleep at night! Hahaha!

By the way, do you know how to read the BV tag in my bag (pouch)? I will post it below for easy reference. Just curious to have the knowledge :) Thank you!

Great! Thank you so much! I thought there was a way to read the year it was created, like LV before they switched over to the RFID. Thanks again for all your help and taking the time to respond back. Thank you for the link as well! I'll check it out now. I TOTALLY appreciate YOU!!! :)

Hi all! Would someone be kind enough to authenticate this Teen Jodie I just received? I'm new to Bottega Veneta, and thought I'd try a pre-loved bag before heading to the boutique to purchase a 2nd bag at full-price....in a larger size. lol. TIA!
