I'm very curious about the turnlock. I got one of these before I knew much about Coach. Mine was made in the same factory a month before but has silver hardware. The turnlock is totally different from yours, and both are different from standard Coach turnlocks. Actually at the time these were made, I thought that Coach almost always put silver hardware with camel leather.

The turnlock could have been replaced too. It's the only hardware on that style bag. Someone may have just wanted to change the hardware color, or maybe those were the only turnlocks they could find. Turnlocks are replaceable and you can't use them as the only authenticity indicator.

Whateve, the other 9049s on Ebay have the same non-standard turnlock back as the one in your photos, EXCEPT for an apparently fake K3H-9049 that has the standard Coach turnlock and a date code that's three or four years off.

That keychain is fake.

There are several koi fish fobs but the one that appears to be trying to copy is style 92313.

The tag attached to the fob appears to be the type they put on at the outlets when they don't know the style number of an item but I can't imagine that leepooh got this item from the outlet. It's a thin cheap copy and isn't even close to what the Coach item looks like:

I thought so. I think there is a possibility that someone took it to an outlet and an unsuspecting SA gave them a refund and then sold it.
 
Hi,
I'm new to the forum... I recently found this black leather coach and in all my research I can't seem to figure out what style it might be. The serial is from the days where the serial does not mean anything (or so I think)
Any assistance in identifying this purse would be appreciated!
