Hi all! I have recently bought these two Coach bags from a garage sale and was wondering if they are authentic. Upon some research I noticed a lot of people call them vintage but without the actual style name, so I am not sure of their style name. I would appreciate your help very much!

No. L5S-9965
Name: I think it's Legacy Trail?


Bag #1

Hi! Thank you for your fast response! I feel a little relieved that at least one of the bag is authentic, phew.

As for bag #1, what gave it away that it's a fake?
The creed number font is wrong, and the plant code 'S' was never used for bags made in the US. If it were authentic, it would be called the Legacy small flap. The trail bag is a different style.
 
First I didn’t think they were making this Rambler in ‘98. Well I learned something today!
While it is not an optimal creed pic, the way the font and creed photographed , I thought maybe the font was too thick and the placement crooked. I did not think a plastic zipper would be used in that bag. But as you say , don’t go by zippers and since plastic zippers were used in ‘98 they could have stuck them in any ‘98 bag.
There were other things, but if you say it’s legit, that is good enough for me. So I don’t need to go on.
Thank you!

Coach re-issued a lot of older styles, especially in the 1990s.
 
I would like to thank all of the PF authenticators for taking the time to review my postings yesterday. I have many more I need to be reviewed and I hope this does not become bothersome.

Is this an authentic Coach Bag?
This bag is not currently listed for sale and there is no link to any site. I believe it is a Coach Willis Bag. It has orderly creed number B5B-9927 I have attached photographs.creeded.jpg IMG_3219ed.JPG IMG_3226ed.JPG IMG_3225ed.JPG IMG_3231ed.JPG IMG_3232ed.JPG IMG_3238ed.JPG

It's fine.
 
Hello experts - could you please authenticate:
Item: Bucket bag (creed seems to say 9953)
Listing #: 173284728366
Seller: christine07bader
Link: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/173284728366?ul_noapp=true
Comment: Seller did not confirm dimensions and the bag looks a bit small.. so I would also like to know which bag it is - the small 9919 or the medium 9953 version?
Thanks!
It's fine. It's a 9953, like it says on the creed, a Helen's Legacy, which is the medium size.
