Hi! :wave:It would be grateful if someone can help me to authenticate this.

Item: F54787 Charles Pack in Signature

Comments : I honestly get this as a gift exchange from my uncle during Christmas last year. It doesn't come with receipt and i'm too shy to ask him. I want to use this for my upcoming vacation on May. But need to have the confirmation on the authentication first. I appreciate the gift, but I feel so wrong carrying fake bag everywhere...:sad:

The creed number? Remember, I'm new at this :smile:

This s a good example of WHY those Salearea Guides that were already recommended to you are so important. That combination style number is mentrioned in the Guides, as are a lot of the other unusual serial and style number variations. I know the Guides can be confusing on the first, second or even the tenth reading. You don't have to memorize them but you need to have them available to REFER to them. Reading them once isn't enough to answer a lot of questions because there's too much information there to memorize or even process. I wrote them and even I don't remember everything, I still go back every few months and read them again. Every re-reading adds a bit more to what you remember. And there are some things that I probably missed, so always ask here before you buy.

Coach has been making handbags for more than 50 years and there's no way one or two guides could cover every variation and change that they've made, and they made changes constantly. Never judge the details of one bag by comparing it to the details of a different style.

Hello! Would you please take a look at this to authenticate? It's my first of this style, and it looks like they are pretty common. Please accept my apologies for the photo order - creed is last.
I also saw in one of the most recent posts a reference to Salearea Guides - I'm going to take a look and study :)
