LVOE tote?

Is the 'LV" on the canvas one beaded? I thought the LV on the canvas was gold thread while the violet and olive one was beaded. This was from earlier pics. Have they changed it?
 
I love this tote alot ever since I saw it in the S/S pics, but the price is too rich for my blood, especially since I'm holding out for the miroir lockit too :crybaby:
