Hello authenticators! Could you please authenticate this pre-creed coach for me? And let me know the approximate date/name if possible?

Hi, it's authentic. It is not what we call "pre-creed." Pre-creed bags just have a Coach label, no creed. There is a creed but no serial number. It's from the mid 70s. The bag may have been called different things at different times but at one time it was called a double entry swinger.

#4 is authentic. I have it in my files but I don't have any information about it.

The only thing I found were a few small pictures. Tetondeb just calls it a Doctors Satchel, and another photo gives it a style number of 9340. Both date it just to "1970s", no other info like measurements though. A note on the second photo says it's from a 1974 catalog.1970s_SacMag Doctors Satchel-lg.jpg 9340_Doctors Satchel-1970s.jpg .

Hello Hyacinth and Whateve,
Many thanks and much appreciation for the assistance and information!

Can someone help me authenticate this Coach wallet? It was donated for my French Bulldog rescue charity purse auction. All other items donated by the donor were authentic.

Genuie. I don't know the exact name but the line was called Legacy Novelty, and the style looks like a French Purse from the early 2000s. If I find the exact name, I'll post it.

ETA - It's probably a Legacy Novelty or Perforated Compact Clutch, style 8645 from around 2004. This is the closest one I could find:

I can't find the style number of the french purse but the checkbook is 6562, the accordian ziparound wallet 6563 and there was a coordinating picture frame keychain, style 1716:

That's it! Thank you!

I have another I'll be posting. It may be a counterfeit, and I can't have those in our auction.
 
Can anyone authenticate this Coach wallet? The ugly silver key holder is throwing me off along with the circle adjacent to the Made in China embossing. Possibly a Factory Store item or maybe just a counterfeit item? Not really sure.
