I purchased a bag off of eBay that I thought was authentic and now I’m starting the question my decision.

From the Creed, it was manufactured in September 1998.
There are a couple of things that has me questioning it. It has two pencil pockets and I believe as of 1995. It should have three.
The little zipper above the creed the last circle part I think should have a loop that's part of the circle that connects the chain not just be a circle itself. The underneath part that holds the clasp is an oval and I think that should be a roundish rectangle. Then we get to the inside of the bag where the seams are the suede doesn't go all the way to the seam, and you can see the back of the leather.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry it's fake.
 
Good evening authenticators! I have a request to authenticate please.
Item: Coach Legacy Rambler #9061
Where purchased: Mercari
Comments: For this bag I felt like the serial number was off due to the letters. This is my first vintage Coach and I am unsure. There is a section of the lining that looks to be more of a glossy black than the rest of the bag. I’ve attached photos. Measurements 9in(L) x 7in(H) x 3inch (W). Thank you so much in advance!

Hello Authenticators! So grateful to find this platform. I just bought a vintage coach duffle sac off of Poshmark from a seller. I thought I checked it properly to make sure it’s real, but now I’m unsure. I noticed an extra word “markings” in the creed that I missed which now has me worried. But I’ve seen that word in the creed of other vintage bags with people arguing that it’s real. However I don’t see it often. Please help! The listing is still up on site while I’m waiting for the bag in the mail, so you can still see the images.
It’s the Coach Duffle Sac in red. If this is real, I believe it came out in a time when the serial number was just random numbers so possibly the 70s. Here is the link to the site for pics: LINK
Thank you!

It's authentic, made late 70s or 80s.
