It doesn't look right to me either. The lining really looks wobbly around the edges, and are there indentations on the back of the turnlock? BB and I seem to be seeing the same thing.

OK, so I just found a thread where Hyacinth says that solid brass ended around 1990.
But I'd sill love to know when the Regina was first introduced in market to compare to the date/year on the Creed. THANKSOK, so I just found a thread where Hyacinth says that solid brass ended around 1990.
Having a valid year code in a serial number won't prove that a "Coach" is genuine, if that's what you're trying to do. A careful counterfeiter would use a correct year code. There are also several other details that can be used to indicate that a Regina (or any other Coach style) might be fake.
The Regina was shown as "New" in the Holiday 1995 catalog.
Thank you, Hyacinth!
Yes, so I if someone had a creed showing a date of 1994 for a Regina, it would be fake. ??? I guess that's the first year the creed changed to show the year? 1994? I wonder about a date code of 1995 in a month prior to November/December? Perhaps they were produced tho, months before launch. Thank you so much for the date Regina's were launched. Thank you, Hyacinth!
We always need to see actual photos of the creed. Plant employees can make mistakes. Questions about the authenticity of a specific item MUST be posted in the Authenticate This Coach thread and include the required details and photos.
It's a leather Mini Skinny Case. That style was made for at least 10 years and they all were very similar except maybe for the material and a few small details, so there's no way to pin down a year or style number. The first one, 6902, goes back to 1996, here's the 1996 catalog description:

Early dinkies and convertible clutches were made like this.
You're welcome. It didn't work that well, which is why they changed the design.
True, looks tight and doesnt have much room for the hook to move around.
