Genuine, probably a Compartment Bag style 9850 from the early 1990s.

Did you notice that the listing description says "authenticated" but for some reason they don't list the authentication service or show a photo of the "certificate of authenticity". Veeeeeery interesting ...
I hadn't noticed "authenticated," but I did notice the measurement (yes, "measurement" singular): 83.5 inches deep.

I am seriously in love with the vintage Coach bags, received my first one recently.:biggrin:
Now I finally worked out how to send links:smartass: , please have a look at the following bags for me. Unfortunately not a lot of choices in the UK .

Many thanks x

1- FAKE. Wrong font used in the serial number, the color isn't quite right and the month and year in the code is too early for silver-color hardware. The placement of the creed stamp isn't right either.

2- genuine Multi Zip Bag from 1996

3- genuine Court Bag from 1997
