That was my mistake, I didn't read far enough into my own notes.

The pic of the fake creed you posted shows the "new" creed formatting, but the old "scars, scratches" wording was still being used into 1995 by most of the plants sharing the M code.

Thanks for the information I've found in this forum.
I have a bag with the exact Serial # K4M-4157 I bought on Ebay. So am I to understand that it IS fake?
If so, , I'll need to contact the seller for a refund, and I wonder if she even knows, as the other bags I purchased from her are okay, according to the information I've found here.
Thanks for your reply.

The serial number isn't fake in itself. It depends on the wording, the font and the bag it is on. We would need to see pictures of your bag and the creed. If the listing is still on ebay, you can post a link to the listing.

I'm glad you like my rainbow!

The top one isn't considered to really be a wallet. It is a multicase. They made these for the outlets for years. Since it was made in India, I'm thinking it is from the early to mid 2000s. Both look authentic.

Before asking about a specific bag, I'd like to ask whether anyone has ever seen an N plant code for China. (I don't see any issues with the bag it's on.) I don't recall having seen it before.
