Hi! Would like to once again ask for assistance in authenticating this coach bag. This was "turned over" to me by a friend since she knows i'm starting to collect vintage bags.

Item: Coach crossbody bag style 9966

Thank you!
Hi again! Sorry for the multiple and duplicate posts. I don't know what happened. Kindly refer to the original post with pictures. Thank you so much again!
 
Hi! Another one for authentication. Hope somebody can help confirm if this is authentic. :)

Item: Coach Vintage Bag (looks like a camera bag)

Thank you so much!

Good morning!

Any chance this isn't a fake? I am expecting a 5130 serial number for a station bag...

Item: Station bag
Seller: joe_of_the_rock
Listing: 192240240150
Link: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/COACH-vintage-5130-Station-cross-body-shoulder-brown-leather-bag/192240240150?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649

Thanks!
This is why we request the posting format and to search posts for listings. That bag was questioned and authenticated yesterday:

I'll also repeat my advice in that post to read the six Salearea Coach Guides, or read them again if you've already read them once. Anyone who buys, collects or sells Coaches, especially classic and vintage styles, should have the link to those Guides bookmarked and read them over again every month or two just to refresh their memories. There are a few details that have chnaged a bit since I researched them but they've still held up pretty well considering the changes Coach has gone through in the same time period.
 
Hi! Thank you for your reply! I believe that's it. I think it matches the syle number indicated in the bag also however, as i've learned from this forum, correct style number stamped on the bag does not necessarily mean that the bag is genuine. I'm hoping this one is.
If we identify the bag, that means it's authentic. I apologize if I wasn't clear.
Hi! I was able to come across an etsy listing of the same bag, with the same "serial no" but of a different color. I have attached the link. May i know what your thoughts about this are? Thank you!

It's authentic too.
