Here is another bag that I got there. The creed cannot be read at all. I feel that it could be a fake.

I can just barely make out the font used for the serial number, and it seems ok. There's nothing there that makes me think it's fake. It's one of the Saddle Pouches probably from the mid-1980s. There's no way to know which one without accurate measurements.

Oh thank you so much Hyacinth!! I was wondering because of the faded creed. Plus I had never seen a Coach bag with a buckle belt at the bottom before. Then again, I started buying Coach in the 90s and that's why I don't know much about the earlier ones.

Once again, thank you so much!!
 
Sorry, it's fake. The serial font is wrong, and so is the style number. I hope you didn't pay much for it, since you're probably not able to easily get your money back unless you live in Japan.

Thank you again!!! Oh well, I liked the design and I thought it could be a real Coach.

I didn't pay much for it though so it's alright. Thanks again!!

The measurements are roughly 11 inches by 8.5 inches. Strap is 52 inches
It's a saddle pouch large #9585.
