Can someone tell me if this is authentic?

There is no need to post your request more than once. If I skip your request, it is because I am not familiar enough with the style to authenticate. There are other authenticators who might be able to. I believe the creed picture is too fuzzy to determine authenticity.
The creed is patent leather and when the pic is taken with a flash, it's hard to read.

So far there aren't any red flags but if you can request a clear picture, perhaps without the flash or if taken at an angle so the text and serial number don't show the glare, that would help.
 
Hello ladies, sorry to bother. Just picked this one up and wanted to check if it is authentic. It still has the Coach factory tag on but I just want to be sure of authenticity. Thank you!

As far as I know the color code for camel was CA. I don't know what BB would stand for. I'd like to get Hyacinth's opinion. It still looks good to me.

The Costa Rica plant was never given the upgraded serial number stamp that had been made to allow a 2-digit year code, so it was technically Coach's mistake - or cheapness, since apparently they figured the plant would be closing before the end of the year and there was no need to make a new stamp for them. I've seen quite a few genuine bags from CR with "4" year codes that were obviously made in 2004, and usually with outlet stamps. But as Whateve said, selling it could lead to accusations of selling a fake even though the bag is genuine.

I don't have a "BB" color code in my files and have NO idea what it stood for, sorry.

If anyone is still wondering about the color code BB, it's probably Bamboo.
