Identify this Balenciaga

[B.the.attagirl]

I posted this in the thread "A Place for the Fakes" but now I'm thinking I should have posted it here first - my apologies!

I came across this on Fashionphile and I noticed the tag said color #4160 season D on what they call a Bleu Acier. I know after researching the color Bleu Mineral comes up with that color code. Could this be a fake or does Bal duplicate color codes for different seasons?

From what I can find, S/S 2013 saw the code for bleu acier as 4760, and the code for bleu mineral that same season as 4160.
S/S 2016 4160 was used for bleu acier.
F/W 2018 4160 was used for a bleu mineral outlet bag I found online.
So it does look like was used for both colours in different seasons.

Thanks for clarifying that. I know that honest mistakes happen even on trusted sites but seeing the color duplicated made me suspicious. I'll delete my post on the other thread.

It’s the tag inside the bag we need a pic of, the side with the style number on it.

Oh ok, it's arriving later this month so I'll take a photo once I receive it.

Got this beauty online, but I’m not sure if it’s a Plomb bag or another kind of gray part-time. It’s got feet underneath, so it must be an older model. Any guesses or confirmation that this is indeed Plomb? Also not quite sure if the leather is agneau or chevre since it’s a bit stiff, but it’s definitely so much thicker than my Balenciaga Agneau bags (but not as glossy and smooshy as my 05 Magenta Chevre bag)

Kindly please help to check whether or not it's authentic

The photos are terrible but I'm not keen on what I can make out. If you want to get good pics and post on the correct thread we can take another look but I wouldn't rush out to buy it without doing so.

What do you think @ksuromax? I had a plomb WE and to my eye this is a bit too light, although it could be the lighting. Maybe anthra?

Here are a couple of pics of mine, check the colour of the mirror in the second pic as the bag itself is a bit faded. Plomb is a true lead colour, like the lead in a pencil. OP's bag looks more grey to me.
