Coach has made some unusual accessories. I don't see anything that would make me believe it wasn't made by Coach.

ETA: It looks like the Hudson Baseball paperweight made in 2002, style #8454.

8454 is a different color than the one in the listing. it's solid color.

The seller describes her item as a squeeze ball. Perhaps 443 isn't as heavy as the paperweight.

443 is 2-toned

first is 8454 and second is 443:

Thanks. Do you know the year for #443? I assume it came out earlier. It was the description as a squeeze ball that made me wonder if it was really a paperweight.

Probably authentic, at least I don't see any obvious problems. But if either of them have creed patches it would be nice to see them. More opinions are welcome

There are always a LOT of Swingpacks listed on Ebay, and it's a long time 'til Summer, so don't be in a rush. Shop around a bit before you decide. If you're within easy driving distance of a Coach outlet, it might be worth a trip before you make a final decision, Swingpacks are usually in good supply and at good prices. I think there are 2 Factory Stores near Toronto and one in Niagara Falls.
