Hi, I’m new to this site but it was highly recommended to me. Please forgive me if I’ve made mistakes while posting this. Well, here it goes. I have this bag that seems to be very well made but not sure if it’s coach since it doesn’t have signature lining, or the coach symbol on outside of bag. The serial number is E1473-09951. I can post additional pictures if needed, thank you!

It's authentic. Most bags don't have signature lining. It was only used during some years and on some bags. This bag is a classic, made in 2014 but a reissue of one of Coach styles from the 90s. Back then there wasn't much branding. Welcome to the forum!

That seems odd to me too! I wonder if anyone on the forum has a borough they bought from Coach that has a similar tag.

I couldn’t get the picture to unlock by the other one I found has listing number: 142498616720 in ebay. (https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/142498616720 )

There was a “rare alpine moss” borough that might be he same one in the above link authenticated here but I can’t see the photos anymore. I’ll try again on my laptop instead of my phone.

Thank you so much! Do you have any idea of what it’s worth? Someone told me $50 but I don’t know if that’s accurate or not. Thanks again!

In 2000, this style sold for $272. Most buyers prefer the older version to your version, but since it appears to be in excellent condition, you could probably get more than $50. Here's one that sold for $129. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-BROWN-...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
Here are a bunch of recent sales, sorted from highest to lowest: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&_nkw=coach+9951&_sop=16
The majority sold for less than $50.

Please authenticate. This bag is in my possession. It measures 12 x 7 x 6 and has 6 little brass feet, two internal flap pockets, as well as snaps attaching the zipper to the side. The strap is 3/4 inch wide and has trigger claps. Is it a Broadway satchel? Thanks.IMG_2276.JPG IMG_2280.JPG IMG_2281.JPG

Hi! Can you help me to authenticate this messenger please, I found it in a second hand store and it looked so beautiful to me so I bought it.

I love it and I really hope everything looks fine.

I googled it everywhere I think the name is Rhyder Shearling Messenger bag

I’m not interested in this bag but clicked on it bc it seemed like a good price for a borough. I was a bit confused by the sewn in tag. The other details looks ok to me, even after comparing to my borough. What’s with that tag?

Item: large borough

Listing number : 222847417361

Seller: rebels98

Link: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/222847417361

To clarify, this is the tag I was asking about!

ETA: here is another one with that tag. Sorry if this is silly - to me the tag looks weird and it’s just made me curious.

I've never seen that label on a bag either but I don't see anything in either of the bags that indicates they aren't authentic.

They look fine.

Hello again kind authenticators.
Item: Coach hang tag from a white Taylor Mini Bette bought at a consignment store.
Size: About 2 x 1 inches

Comments: I am getting ready to sell some of the bags I do not use anymore, and I noticed this hang tag on one of them. I compared it with some others and to me it looks fake. I am not sure if the rule of "in Coach there are not rules..." or something like that, could mean that at one point they made hang tags differently and the one of the purse got replaced with one.
I will never sell fakes not even a hang tag. No hurry and thank you in advance.

Some hangtags can be tough to authenticate because the construction on some fakes is pretty close.

However in this case, I (personally) wouldn't feel comfortable attaching the white one to a bag.

Although I assume it's the middle white one that's causing concern, I just want to add a couple of comments:
  • Coach has made hang tags with and without grommets so the tan one doesn't raise red flags in my mind.
  • Coach has changed the shape of the charm so the top part (with the hole) can show variations
