Vintage Gucci handbags, however, may include serial numbers with additional characters and variations in the format including hyphens, periods, and number lines that are not perfect.
If the serial number on the bag is alpha-numerical you know for sure it is faux. In newer Gucci bags, the serial number will be stacked one on top of the other, and there are also never letters. You will notice it is in all uppercase letters as well as the word GUCCI.įinally, the serial number tag can help you weed out the fakes by identifying the two rows. Another note on this decade of Gucci handbags includes the stamp of MADE IN ITALY. NOTE: For Gucci bags made in the 1990s, the tags will have a slightly rounded corner and the trademark symbol will also be missing.
