Hi, I have a general question about authentic Fendi serial numbers. I have seen the 9 and 6 written how they are typed in the font in this post (i.e. curves on top/bottom of the numbers). However, I have also seen the 9 and 6 written without the curves on serial numbers. For bags from the last decade, is this a sign that the bag is fake? Or is there no standard Fendi font for the serial number on the hologram tag?
(I know there is a standard don't for the leather serial number, but it is usually so hard to read in online pictures). Thank you.

I will show an example I found in listings online:

(9 and 6 without curves)

(9 with curves)

Thank you.

Hello Everyone! I impulsively purchased this used bag without really knowing much about Fendi and wanted to know if it was authentic! The inside lining is all leather and there is no holographic tag since the bag is older. Thanks so much!

The depends on the season the item was produced, so this is not a good indication of whether it is authentic or not...

Hello! Thank you so much for responding so quickly!
The photos were taken myself today and I purchased the bag over the weekend from this higher end I guess you could call it a 'flea market' in Dallas but it was more vendors with etsy shops and booths selling vintage jewelry/clothing/handbags/trinkets etc. The seller claimed that the bag was her mothers and she hadn't used it in years so she wanted to sell it. That's about all the information I have on it! I'm sorry I wish I knew more to help you out! Thank you again
