Name of bag : Regina
Dimensions : 8x7x3.5 inches




I wasn't sure if the bag is real because of the No. H5C = 9983. The bag's texture feel different than other vintage bag

In post #1 where we request the name of the bag, generally we only want a generic description of the type of bag, for example, "leather backpack," "signature tote," etc. Or if it's listed on ebay or another site, the title of the listing is okay. We just want to verify that the bag being questioned is the intended listing. Sometimes a link doesn't go directly to the listing in question.

Is that bag listed online somewhere? If so, we like to see a link to the listing. And if not listed, you can state that you have the bag in your possession.

The bag you've shown is authentic from 1995.

The bag is authentic but I have another comment.

The seller, upcycled-treasures is incorrect regarding her "return policy" as far as what she told you. You stated that she allows returns within 24 hours. That's nonsense!

Her listing shows a 60-day return policy and as such, she MUST accept returns for ANY reason as long as it's within 60 days. And if SNAD (significantly not as described), there'd be no restocking fee or return shipping cost to you.

Hello all Authenticators, been awhile since my last post so I hope I follow the rules.
I just picked this bag up at an estate sale for a really good price, when I look it up I get a number of different EDIE bags
some with feet, some not, and some with side straps and some not also the logo on front seems to differ from the script to a circle, I just want to be sure what I have before I list for sale.

*Sigh* More of "Coach: my middle name is "inconsistent."

Adding to Coach's changes that make it difficult to keep up, few sellers have listings that offer much insight! Most listings don't show the white label with the production/serial information and without that, we can't identify when and where the bags were made.

That said, this is my opinion. Other opinions are welcome.

Your bag was made in December, 2014 in Vietnam and looks good.

Based on the few comps I could find where sellers showed adequate pictures, it looks like in August, 2014, the bag (33547) had oval plaques as shown in the following listings. (Both also are authentic.)
1 - made in August 2014 with oval plaque: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-Coach-...876976?hash=item44206e51f0:g:vyAAAOSwZvFbIHXt
2- made in August 2014 with oval plaque: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Coach-Edie...pa325b:sc:USPSPriorityFlatRateBox!02452!US!-1

Without going through every single current and completed 33547, I wasn't able to find any bags made between August and December but what appears to have happened is that sometime after August, Coach made a design change and replaced the oval plaque with the logo as shown on your bag.
And this listing of a bag made in January 2015 has the same logo as your bag, further confirming (in my mind) that the change was permanent (at least temporarily permanent!)
