I just learned recently that there are three sizes. These are the middle size? If so, I'm now going to have to go on the hunt for a big one! Thanks for your help!

No, it sounds like the Large.

The measurements I have are:

# 9585, Large, 10.5 inches x 8 inches x 2 inches

9590, Medium or Standard, 9x7x2

9595, Small, 9x5x2

The size names could change depending on what other sizes were available, and the measurements for each style are sometimes slightly different (Coach measurements are often inconsistent), and not all 3 sizes were always available at the same time.

Hi Deb,
Just bought this Savannah hobo 4222 after seeing it posted here. Figuring it was authentic. The color "teal" confused me as it sure looks navy. She also describes the interior fabric as gold but am thinking its more tan. Looks like it may need a dunking and will look for help in re-hab posts. It is authentic, right? It relisted at a lower price.
Thanks

We wouldn't have identified it as or called it a Coach or by a Coach style name if it wasn't genuine. FAKES DON'T DESERVE NAMES.

And what names the seller decided to call it don't matter, the colors are exactly what they're supposed to be. The Navy on some Sheridans does have a tint of Teal or Spruce, Coach called them all Navy. I've owned Sheridans in both shades of dark blue, whatever anyone wants to call it.

When this showed up on ebay I did a purse forum search to see if any bags like it show up and was surprised to see the very bag! Just wanted to be sure , as it wasn't clear that anyone had asked for authentication on this exact bag. I was being super lazy as the pictures and bag were the same in the new listing. This is the second time I have bought a bag that was already authenticated on the forum. Such a wonderful tool for handbag lovers, especially vintage. Thanks to all of you for your time and expertise and helping to keep the bad guys on their toes!

COACH Multi Strawberry key chain Keyring KEY FOB RARE

Fake fake fake.

Almost any time you see that layer of colored enamel so far below the top of the bright metal borders and details, it's almost always fake. There are a handful of charms that Coach made that way (one of the multi Fruit charms comes to mind) but almost all of the enameled charms should have the layer of color even with the rest of the metal - the top surface should be smooth enough to run the edge of your fingernail over it without the nail getting caught or chipped on anything (The Candy Charms keychain the seller has in another listing is one of the exceptions where the layers are supposed to have a 3-dimensional look). And Coach almost never did multicolor versions of the same charm.

The font used in the Coach stamp on the backs is completely wrong too, and the chain links are too thin.

Prior to this, I'd never seen her with a fake. She has some unusual and HTF keychains, probably made for the Asian market.

I wonder where some of these keychains are coming from. She has a listing for a studded peace fob (which I believe is okay) with a fake lozenge. This listing should NOT be reported:
