It stands for January 2009. Coach does do the letters to represent each month starting with A and ending with M. They do not use I for some reason. I have no clue why they do it. So
A= January
B=February
C=March
D=April
E= May
F=June
G=July
H=August
J=September
K=October
L=November
M=December.

Then of course the number stands for the year. So 01=2001 and so on.

Well now that makes sense. I was confused when I counted letters and L was 12 and I had an M. But seeing as there is no I it all makes sense. So my bag was made in Dec of 09. I should check out my other creeds. I could have Coach birthdays :)

Hi,

I have a question about the number on Coach creed.

Do all the bags that have the same configuration have the same number inside the bag (Jxxxx-xxxx)?

Is it possible that the first alphabet will be a different alphabet but the rest of the number is the same number?

For example, J0971-14473 and G0971-14473.... but they both are the same style of the bag.

Thank you in advance.

Yes I think it is possible :D The alphabet represents the month of the production. I guess sometimes the alphabets are different for the same style bag because they were from different batches. Hope that makes sense.

I'm glad you said that because I have bags with serial numbers beginning with E, K, I, H and C. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I can't think of months beginning with any of those letters.

Yes, it is. For example, I bought a Hamptons Hobo and the first one I bought was damaged and I got a replacement, they had different letters on the bag. It just means that it was produced in different months. The style number remains the same though.

ETA: Not laughing at you! Just the phrase extra crispy dumb. Too funny!

I found a note between two 6th grade girls about 5 years ago and one of them referred to a boy as being ugly. The other wanted to know how ugly and she wrote "extra crispy ugly" and the other said "oh", like that made perfect sense.

Apparently, she had a boyfriend who was a twin and needed to clarify whether it was the cute one of the ugly one. I taught them the next year and one was rather unfortunate.
