Oh so sorry! I posted the wrong creed. Its from another sling bag. I was discussing these purchases with my friend and she also wanted to know if hers is real as if Im an expert! Haha) My mistake. Sorry for the confusion! The shoulder bag has that serial number. Its D1049-F15929.
 
Hi! Newbie here. Went thrifting the other day and wanted to know if what I got were authentic bags?

This is bag #1.

TIA!

Hi @Hyacinth , here you go!

It's fine. It was called a Zoe.

But that's a different bag, or at least a different serial number and creed. I was asking about the one in post 29851.
https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/authenticate-this-coach.889527/page-1931#post-32261155

It looks like Whateve already identified it as a Zoe but I never did figure out the style number, the one in the creed picture definitely starts with 104 and was made in 2006.

Did you maybe post a creed photo belonging to a different bag? Even the hardware colors between the photo with the creed and the photos right under it are different.

I have a second bag. With pink handles. I thought @whateve was referring the Zoe to the first bag as i searched it up and its same with my first bag.

What's the serial number in the creed photo - the first pic in the link that I just posted? You have 2 different bags in that post. The G066-104?? creed isn't from the same bag shown in the 2 photos right under the creed photo.
Hyacinth is right. That's why I couldn't authenticate it when you first posted it. In your first post, you put up a creed picture for a completely different bag. You can see that the lining is different too.

If she wants it authenticated, we need to see pictures of the bag along with the creed.
 
Is this an authentic Coach Bag?
This bag is not currently listed for sale. I believe it is a Coach Crescent Bag. The approximate dimensions are 10" x 10" x 3 " . The Creed has a registration number of 705-8224 and states it was made in the New York City USA. I have attached photographs.View attachment 4058374 View attachment 4058375 View attachment 4058376 View attachment 4058377 View attachment 4058378 View attachment 4058379 View attachment 4058380 View attachment 4058381 View attachment 4058382 View attachment 4058383

Genuine, probably made in the early 1980s.

If you can-try to remember to take pics of the creed BEFORE You bathe them. 1990s-2000s aren't very deeply stamped
my concern with doing that if you flip the bag (i.e. resell it) is that the buyer may think you're showing a different bag than she received. If selling, it's a good idea to explain that the creed is harder to read after the bag was washed but assure that it's the same bag.
 
That's why the Guide says "... ALMOST completely to China". And since it was first posted in 2011, other countries in Asia have also made plenty of Signature items. Turkey is one of those Asian countries, and I think Coach still may occasionally make a few bags there, although there have also been fakes with Made in Turkey creeds.

The ONLY country AFAIK that has ever had their own name stamped in fakes even though Coach never made handbags in that country is Korea.
Ok. I didn't know Turkey made Signature C bags.
 
Picked this up in a $1 box. Looks well made. No Numbers only Vietnam Tag?? Thank you.
Is this athentic?
