Hi @amandacasey - I am quite new to Chanel though my first bag season 17B was purchased about 3 years ago. Been doing research on this platform & on Yoogi’s. The product hangtag if it comes with the bag (usually brand new / boutique sold) gives info on season, material, colour etc. Refer link below, hope it works.
Yoogi’s reference: https://www.yoogiscloset.com/blog/how-to-read-chanel-tag/
Series # is also indicated on your hologram serial code sticker inside the bag (the first 2 numbers).
I was indeed trying to ascertain the season/series for your bag so that I can look out for a similar preloved Mini (or match the one I am potentially looking at. Seller doesn’t know season info). If you happen to know the season/series #, will be grateful for you to share. Thanks!
PS - I am not sure if that season featured the iridescent minis. I read some TPF members did refer to iridescent caviar for a certain year / season but don’t have a full picture of things.
Hello! Thanks for the reference those are really useful. The serial number on mine starts with a 250- I bought this pre loved so don’t have any hangtag. It definitely appears iridescent, but I like the jet black ones too! If you have a chance at a black mini in caviar you really can’t go wrong! I’ve read that they are no longer doing then in caviar leather for the time being.

Thanks for the info on your lovely bag, Amandacasey!
