Can someone take a look at this? Isn't this a known fake serial/creed number? Thank you!
Item: Vintage Coach Wallet Bag NT-4903
Listing number: n/a
Seller: VintageAtlantaFinds
Link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1094164528/vintage-coach-wallet-bag-nt-4903

From the same seller, so just curious if this bag is authentic as I've never seen that serial/creed before.

I'm curious. Is eBay seller station_85 now doing business as halfpint-leather? Station_85 generally used a mannequin against a solid color backdrop. I clicked on a listing I would expect to be from station_85 based on past thumbnail pics and was surprised to see the other seller. Iirc, halfpint-leather was an Etsy seller. I don't believe that shop is still live.

NT-4903 is always fake, and was the very first fake number in Daria48's Fake Numbers List when she created it and posted it at Ebay 15 years ago. That List is still available here at tPF and Searching using tPF's Search feature for "coach NT 4903" will bring up 19 pages of posts going back to 2006 mentioning that number. ANY TIME YOU FIND THAT NUMBER IN AN ITEM FOR SALE, YOU CAN POST THE LISTING RIGHT AT THE COACH HALL OF SHAME thread, it doesn't have to be verified here. Unfortunately you found it in an Etsy listing and they might not be as quick as Ebay to remove even such and obvious and frequently-confirmed fake.

@Hyacinth I was just reading your excellent Italian coach guide above and I have a question. I am currently rehabbing a Gramercy Top Handle 7002 bag from 1999 (that you graciously authenticated for me) see below for one of the auction pictures. I am trying to figure out the color name for this...

The red Demi Turnlock 9154 is genuine, made in 2000.
