• Full clear and legible creed text and serial number
• Made in tags (when available)
• Measurements
• For bags with turnlock closures, show pictures of back of female side of turnlock

It's authentic but I don't know the style name or number.

Thx!

Thank you so much @Hyacinth! I do try to do a search but I think there's something wrong with either my network/desktop at times because when I key in a search term, I get the url https://forum.purseblog.com/search/search and it says no results. A search goes through only occasionally. I'd probably restart my comp after work and see how it goes.

The key is to keep it simple, just enter the seller's name and don't bother with all the other categories.

BTW, sometimes I accidently enter the search term on the line for "Posted by member" instead of "Keyword" and get that "no results" reply. It's easy to do, so double check that you typed it in the correct line. It's easy to make that mistake.

I can't figure out what style it is either.

I found an old catalog pic on Pinterest. Could this be it??

Good morning authenticators! Can you please authenticate this for me? Thx!
Item: small zippered pouch???
Seller: konkapot
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/324180684080

It's authentic but I don't know the style name or number.

I thought it looked like the Zippered Pouch.
From the Fall 1982 catalog:

Summer 1986 catalog:
Edit: @VintageIsBest you beat me to it!

Interestingly, even though you know there are posts in the entire "Coach" subforum and the ID should come up in a search, I find that it doesn't work when searching the entire subforum.

However when I search within the Coach sub (in this case, "Coach shopping"), I get all (or at least most) of the hits for her ID.

Since @kistae was looking at a listing from laur100, that's the ID I searched.

First, my search of "COACH" subforum -

and the results:



Then, my search of "Coach Shopping"

and the results:

It's fake. Even if it were authentic, it wouldn't be a trail bag.

Purchased at a garage sale. It is much newer than I usually purchase. Not sure I have the correct photos. Can someone authenticate and tell me the name, etc? Thanks very much.

 

[valv54]

It's fake. Even if it were authentic, it wouldn't be a trail bag.

I know! I was just thinking, crap, I called it the wrong thing! Its a small flap?

It's nothing since it is fake. If it were real, it would be a legacy small flap.

Hmm. I wonder if june_cleaver is here. Once @whateve confirmed that the bag is fake, the listing was ended/removed. And I'm pretty sure PM didn't do it so maybe the seller did the right thing!

And if the seller reads TPF, she might want to know that it's not her only fake.
This is fake too:

And this was sold for nearly $100:

Before it was removed, I could have sworn there was a comment from our "favorite" self-appointed authenticator asking if the buckles were stamped.

Hello, I’d really appreciate it if someone would help me determine if this bag is authentic or not. Thank you so much in advance, I really appreciate it!!
Item: “Coach Sierra Dome Purse” is what it was listed as
Where purchased: Mercari (an online selling/buying website similar to eBay and Poshmark)
Comment: No. A1777-F58287
From some reason the website keeps having errors when I try uploading pictures of the Creed Text / Serial Number and the “made in” tag.
However the tag says “Made in Philippines” with a black filled-in circle next to the top of the s in the word “Philippines”.

Include a link to the Mercari listing. If there are sufficient pictures in the listing, you won't need to upload any of your own. We can't authenticate without all the required pictures.
