If you bought the pusrse at a bazaar in afghanistan, then it is probably fake.
It depends on the fake manufacturer. Some are very good and hard to tell.
If you do an Internet search for "real v. counterfeit Coach purse," the first few articles that appear will provide you with very detailed information regarding the best ways to tell if your purse is real or fake.
There are three main ways that you can tell if a Coach purse is fake, 1. on the inside of every REAL bag there is a little leather patch that says info about the coach, FAKE purses DO NOT have this, 2. most times fake leather looks like plastic, 3. the way the coach symbol is formed, if it doesent look normal, it is in most cases FAKE.
to tell you its sometimes example the purse of a brand name if the purse is cheap or its fake leather or something like that or its not in the real store then you know its fake but when its real leather and its expensive and its in the original store then you know its real.
Fakes might have slightly darker color of brown on the side.
It is not an official Coach purse. It is a fake.
OK the biggest way to tell is if you can get inside the purse and see if it has its tags, they should say Louis V made in where ever usually Paris or Milan. The tags will be soft leather and usually in the inside pocket. Another thing is the stitching all the way around is hand done on a real purse and is even and constant. The pattern will not be cut off but will be continuous, lining up perfectly with the next piece. If it is an older purse the straps will begin to turn tanish from its regular white, this is supposed to happen and if it does not it is a bad fake. On the other hand if it is brand new the straps should be white as if they are tan already it is a fake. Also check the actually symbol on the purse sometimes it is not the LV symbol at all but a close fake. Hope this helps :)
Fake
yes it is a real coach purse According to the buying guide of Coach purses, the NT-4903 is not a true Coach purse, but in reality, a FAKE... see the link below on how to tell if a purse is genuine. http://reviews.ebay.com/BUYING-PRE-OWNED-VINTAGE-COACH-HANDBAGS-FROM-EBAY_W0QQugidZ10000000004033205
Make sure it's made in Italy. Check the handiwork - is the bag well made? Is the metal tag on symmetrically?
