Creed Questions - letters, codes, etc. . .

[deweydrop]

do they stamp all their bags? Nordstrom I mean...

I bought a bag from there early last year...no stamp on mine.

 

[finzup]

maybe they stamp it when you pay for it? i saw a bag there the other day and specifically looked for the stamp-- there wasn't one..

 

[Babygirl14]

i never noticed that before on any of my purses...but thanks for the info...

 

[Mariadele]

I have no idea... But wanted to say Welcome Melkelly!

 

[alohamariss]

Usually they stamp it before or so I thought. I only have one coach bag that was purchased at Nordstrom and it has the stamp on it.

This may have been asked before but with search disabled I don't know.

What do the letters mean on the creed? I've seen different letters on the same color and style of bags. EX: Leigh/whiskey some have D,K,G,F ??
D0769-11128, K0769-11128,G0769-11128,F0769-11128 etc...you find different letters on the same bags WHAT DOES THE LETTER MEAN. The 07 is the year isn't it? I know the last is the style #. Thanks

Maybe it's the batch? Like the earlier letters were made earlier in the year? At least that's how it is with cosmetics.

The factory where it was made, I think.

Place of manufacture, date/season of manufacture, and style number.

It depends on how old the bag is. Bags before 1994 just had random 7-digit numbers. Then Coach started adding the month, year and country/plant codes. Some of the new bags from '07 and later include an F in the style number to show it was made for the Factory Store.

When you see a creed, what does the first letter after the "No" designate?

In this example, it's an "E"
i.e. No E0793-11085

 

[Mrs. MC]

What type of bag is it ? I think that letter refers to a particular line but not sure.

 

[selketkrb]

It's a Miranda. I see two in auction. One has an E and the other an M, like this:

No M0793-11085
No E0793-11085

 

[selketkrb]

Nobody knows what that letter is for?

 

[greenpixie]

I think it designates the production facility or something.
