I actually purchased this and have 3 days to return if not authentic and just found your website! Am not sure if you can see the pics since I purchased it - thus here are some close ups.
I have a few questions too -
1.Why are there 2-3 serial numbers for the Lexy ? 57545/27593(more common) and 27579?
2. The leather near teh magnetic closure of thsi bag feels very soft and looks likeit is about to bubble(pic attchd) Is this normal for a Coah or does this indicate it might be a fake?
3. Are the pebbled leather Coach bags ever knwon to peel- or do they last?
Thanks so much in advance! This is sucha GREAT site! you guys are so amazing !!:smile:
Welcome!

The bag looks fine.

I'm not sure what the difference is between the 2 styles.

Hello all,

I've always loved Coach but this is the first I've ever bought. I was having a good time on poshmark and ended up ordering this bag right here without even questioning its authenticity. The lining seems to be nice quality. The stitching is great. The zipper is YKK. However there is no creed, no leather hangtags, and no other coach markings besides the brass hangtag. From what I've seen in other forums, it is part of the Legacy 2012 collection. But I don't see this particular bag when I try to research this collection. Can someone help me?

I'm not an authenticator so wait for the experts, but it looks fine to me. Small bags may not have a creed patch inside but there is usually a small fabric tag (often sewn inside of a pocket or along a seam) that says "Coach" and "Made in _________" and the style number (48042). Your bag has a brass metal hangtag which is correct for that style.

I pulled the images below off the Internet Wayback Machine from August 2012 and my (non-expert) opinion is that you've got a beautiful Coach bag, a Legacy Haircalf Pinnacle Large Flap Clutch in Camel with Brass Hardware, new with tags, congratulations!

Wow! I am so relieved that you say that. Thank you so much for doing that research and letting me know what you think! :smile:

Edit: Oh, and there is a tag inside, but all it says is made in China. No mention of coach. Does that change anything?
 
I've had many coach bags over the years but I've never seen a creed so faded. The only thing Coach could tell me over phone was that darker creeds can fade. The pattern looks right, stitching is uniform, clips are branded ....but this has me nervous so I wanted to ask your opinions. I appreciate your help.

I think that it is fine but please wait for the expert authenticators to give their opinions. I hope that you got it for a good price, it is a beautiful bag!
