Hello,
I went back to the same store where I bought a Patricia bag yesterday and picked up what I think is a ranch bag (thanks to the help from the vintage thread).
I would appreciate help authenticating this one.
Item: Ranch
Where purchased or how obtained: local shop
About 11" long, 9" high, and 3.5" deep
Thank you!

All three are authentic. The first one was made in 1996, the second is a dinky made in the late 70s or 80s, and the third was made mid 70s.

That's wonderful! Thank you so much for your help!!!

They are all fine. The first is a Rambler's Legacy, second is a Willis bag, third is a Scooter bag, and the last is a Soho Worth bag.

@AnnaLilo

If you don't know where to find the item number, it's even more important to include the seller ID (as required for posts) because once a listing has ended, a different listing often for a completely different style bag comes up when clicking the link.With seller ID and item number, we can know that we're looking at the listing you're asking about.

In this case, all the listings ended and this listing is the one that comes up when clicking each of your 4 links, which isn't even the same style as you're asking about in several!

To find the item number, scroll down below the seller info on the right side to the description section and on the right side of the page, you'll see it.

The first one seems OK but the metal on the key ring looks lighter than the other brass hardware. Also the seller claims it's from the 1980s which is wrong, those weren't even introduced until approximately the mid 1990s.

The chain on the blue one looks really rough and the triple ring holding the chain to the bag isn't something Coach usually used. I think the chain, keyring and the rest except maybe for the turnlock have been replaced by cheap "mystery metal", it doesn't even look like it's brass-coated. I have at least half a dozen of those mini pouches and none of the hardware on mine looks like that. It's even possible that the entire thing is fake, there are very few details on those that can help us authenticate them and if the hardware isn't first quality I wouldn't trust the rest of it either.

This is what that chain and hardware should look like, note there's no triple-wrapped ring on the genuine ones here although I have seen one on one of the "backpack" coin pouches. The hardware in those might have varied depending on when and where they were made:




MORE OPINIONS ARE WELCOME.

Can someone authenticate this bag for me?

Thank you so much in advance! ❤

The link is not working for me, so I'm giving this a BUMP.

It's a genuine Legacy Zip from 1998 and yes, the color looks like Mahogany

 

[Luvpurplepurses]

It's not a scooter. It's a small sidepack if authentic. I think it is okay but would prefer a better clearer picture of the creed with the complete number showing.

@whateve here is a clearer picture of the Creed for the sidepack.
