I just recently purchased a peacoat and came across this thread. The tag is actually a lot like the "counterfeit" tag posted earlier
. Does anyone know why this was identified as a counterfeit coat? The tag on mine follows the same formatting as the image above, and it has 2X5 buttons (1 row hidden), lower exterior pockets, no interior pockets, and the fabric has a softer hand than my other 1958 kersey wool pea coat. This was actually my first indication that something might be wrong, assuming that any coat made with melton instead of kersey wool would be new enough to have tag that identified the production year. Plus, the coat is in very nice condition for a coat that would need to be older than the 1980's, unless I'm misidentifying melton wool.
Is there anything other than these anomolies that would indicate that the coat is fake? I bought it on ebay, so I can ask for a refund or file a claim if there is good evidence of forgery.
