It just dawned on me that this might be one from their "light weight" collection.am i right? Because it is leather, but is very light.Lol all i know about coach comes from here!!
It is authentic, and you are right, it is from the lightweights collection. I'm currently looking for the style name/number.

ETA: It's a slim zip bag #4018.

Hello,
I am brand new to this forum and I am a Coach collector. I found a bag that has no creed, it is very nice condition, but suspect slightly that it might be a fake....but a really good one! I am not sure and need help. How do I start an authentication request?
Thank you!! :)

Hi, welcome to the Purse Forum! Please read the first post in this thread for the information needed for an authentication request.
 
IMG_5539.JPG IMG_5540.JPG Here are some pics of the bag. It is very heavy leather, substantial in weight. The stitching is perfect all over the bag. No signs of being a fake...IMG_5541.JPG IMG_5542.JPG IMG_5543.JPG IMG_5544.JPG IMG_5545.JPG The odd thing is that there is no creed stamp, no hang tag, nothing to indicate it is a coach, except for all it's features. I first thought it to be pre-creed, but there is nothing anywhere that says Coach. I found it thrifting. It was hanging next to an authentic bag that was so trashed I didn't buy it at $4.
As for this bag, I am also uncertain of its age based on the style. The zipper is heavy and like the old Cashin designs but I don't know the name of this design style. Any info or insights would be appreciated and I can post more pics if needed.

I'm sorry, if there are no Coach markings, there is no proof it was made by Coach. I've seen generic copies of Coach bags. I agree, it looks like they got every detail right. It's not an old enough style to just have a Coach stamp without a creed.
