What do you mean "normal"? Are you asking if this is a sign of a counterfeit bag? If you have any doubt, you should get the bag authenticated.

I guess my question is if LV makes normal mistakes such as this? I am buying this bag from someone I trust. I have bought bags from her several times in the past with no problems but I have some misgivings on this one. I am just wondering if this is just one of those mistakes because I am pretty sure it is authentic. I just don’t feel comfortable asking her if I can get it authenticated as she may feel I am doubting her that’s why I am wondering why the letters and numbers on this one is not the same size. :(

I would get the bag authenticated.

my mom bought a neverfull mm monogram bag and the bag indicates made in france but the code is fh0068, is it normal if it was manufactured in US (FH code) but the bag indicates made in france?? please enlighten me thanks much
 
I bought a preloved Delightful PM. I authenticated the bag already. BUT, the date code is odd. MI5135

I did some research and there are certain years that do indeed have 53 weeks instead of the 52. The year 2015 had 53 weeks.

Has anyone else received a Delightful or other Louis Vuitton that has a 53 week date code?

Does this raise a red flag for anyone?

Hi! I’m new here so if I need to direct this to the authentication thread let me know. I just purchased a preloved multicolor Trouville and am having trouble reading the date code. Does anyone know what years the multicolor Trouvilles were produced? And can anyone take a stab at this date code?

Hi, ladies! Where should the date code be located on a Palermo GM? I'm looking at a few pre-loved options and some seem to have it inside the leather-trimmed inner pocket and others seem to have it on the opposite side, in one of the untrimmed pockets?
