The heart key fob looks fine although I can't come up with a style number for it.

The closest I can find in my records was a leather heart that came in a 3-piece set that included the heart, a red leather apple and a leather JRT. The 3-piece set was style 1650 but according to my heart picture, there was a small red enameled heart attached. So I'm not sure whether this is the one from that set.

Hyacinth might know the style number of yours.




ETA: I think I found it. Style 7262:

I don't have a date but I'd guess around 2004, give or take a year each way

Mostly it's just familiarity with the styles and the color combinations, and checking the fonts of any Signature Cs on the charms. There are no simple Rules on fake keychains. The best thing to do is ask here, both BeenBurned and I are familiar with most Coach styles and details.

The important things to remember is that all genuine Breast Cancer Awareness keychains ONLY were made in a combination of Pink colors, any other color combinations are fake. And fire hydrants on the Pet Mix keychains were ONLY red. But there have been close fakes that came close to the right color combinations, so always ask first.

It's REALLY important to avoid fake keychains - like the cheapo Chinese ones that Wal-Mart and other stores had to recall a few years ago, fake name-brand keychains are usually LOADED with lead and even arsenic and other toxins and no one with children or pets should ever have anything that dangerous in their purse or house. Babies especially love bright shiny colors and like to chew on them, and that could be extremely dangerous.

Coach's plants have to follow laws regarding toxic materials - the counterfeiters don't care.

Wow, that's really disturbing about the lead and arsenic in fake key chains ~ I guess its not enough that they're ripping people off, apparently they want to poison them too. Thanks for the info!!!
