Good evening authenticators. I believe this bag may not be authentic and would like your opinion. I noticed the J8Y prefix on the creed, and made in the US.

Item: Coach Black Leather Beaumont Satchel
Listing number: 162733794413
Seller: larisa.rose
link: www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Black-Leather-Beaumont-Doctors-Satchel-Black-Crossbody-Messenger-9871-USA/162733794413?hash=item25e3b0a46d:g:-qIAAOSw3gJZNGGG
Comment: Thank you in advance for your time!
ANY and EVERY J8Y is fake!

Experts of the forum, do you have any thoughts on these two Coach Willis listings? (Also, is that poshmark listing British tan or brown, do you think? The light is poor, so I can’t really tell!)

Seller: meaniecubed
Site: Poshmark
Listing: 1990s coach willis bag
https://poshmark.com/listing/1990s-Coach-Willis-Bag-59b41e9deaf0301dc6005131

Second listing — at Shopgoodwill.com
Listing: green coach Willis
https://www.shopgoodwill.com/Item/45329519

Many thanks for your thoughts!

The first is genuine and the color looks like British Tan.

The creed and serial number in the second one aren't clear enough for me to be 100 percent sure about authenticity.
