It's genuine.

It's really a waste of time guessing at older tan and brown colors. That bag is at least 40 years old, can you imagine how much a color can change over 40 years? ESPECIALLY if it hasn't even been given a bath yet?

AFTER it's been cleaned you can probably figure it out from this 1981 color chart:

Thanks, Hyacinth. Your description of the 40 year old bag certainly makes sense and reassures me that I could maybe figure this out, especially after I get my final laser eye procedure this week. (two cataracts and then a grow-back) Getting older sucks.
 
Could you please help me authenticate this bag and identify. I bought this bag and don't know what it is. Thank you for your help.

Thank you for the guidance
As it says at the top of every page in this authentication forum, **SEE FIRST POST FOR FORMAT**

Read post number One and follow the instructions. But you'll have to ask the seller to send or post a readable photo of the creed stamp and serial number, because even with all those photos the seller didn't post a pic of the most important detail we need to authenticate.
 
Thank you for replying. My apologies for overlooking the post format.

This is why we have the format and information requirement!

The Etsy seller is ChixVTG. Most (if not all) of her listings lack pictures necessary to authenticate and too many sellers know what not to show!

The bag is fake.
 
Hi, I'm new to the forum so hopefully I'm doing this correctly. I would like to have a Coach Court bag G0P-9870 authenticated. The listing stated the color as Mahogany. I've already purchased the bag from eBay so I no longer have the link. Dimensions are approx. 7.75" (W) x 8" (H) x 3.5" (D). Thank you.View attachment 4464629
