I corrected the Sheridan to Dakota since that's what it is, just one of those Senior Moments. I got so excited about finding another Mystery Bag Princess that my brain cells went into overdrive.

Most of the Dakotas have classic names from the American West, like Rider, Ranger, Fargo, Cassidy, Lariat, Plains, and Cartwright. And if there was a Cassidy Bag, there should be a Sundance, after all, where would Butch have been without the Sundance Kid, right? So I'm just correcting Coach's oversight.

And just because there can never be too much of those two...

ETA - Oh, you want to see the BAG? Sorry, I seem to have gotten distracted for a moment.

I'm pretty sure the style number would have been 4202

I have to go read your post and see your 4202, I was distracted!!!

That's another quality of Mystery Bag Princesses, they appreciate the finer things in life.

Hello again Authenticators,
I hope you're all having a great Friday. I found this cute crossbody swingpack so I'm in a good mood today. The leather part of this bag feels super soft like one of my vintage bags so I grabbed it but at the moment I'm not finding many online and I'm not sure why. I'm hoping someone can look it over for me. Thank you as always. I appreciate it. ☺️

Item: Coach Creed No. B0973-42668
Purchased: Local Goodwill
Dimensions: 8.5" H x 7" L x .5" D

It's genuine, made in 2009. Which might explain why there aren't as many for sale as you expercted.

Also when searching, I hope you're only using the second part of the serial number, which is the style number, in your search.

Thanks for your time and knowledge Hyacinth. Yes, I did use the second part of the serial numbers but I saw one on eBay from Japan (?) so I'm relieved it's ok. You made my day. Have a great weekend!!

Yes, it's a genuine Swinger from the Lightweight line, style 4040 and made in the late 1980s.

I don't think the strap is original, my catalogs show a single strap rather than the double strap in the listing. This is from the Holiday 1987 catalog, click on the thumbnail to enlarge:

May I ask if any of you lovely ladies knows what this style is called?

It has no #, I know it's supposed to be limited edition , based on the made in tag I assume it's authentic but i cannot find any information on it.
Thank you in advance, if this is not the correct thread please forgive me

It's authentic, style 10154. I don't know the official name (nor if it's really ltd. ed.) but I'd call it Scarf print kisslock wristlet with snakeskin trim.
