Genuine. But we need links to the actual auction page with the listing, NOT just to Ebay's main page if the item was bought within the last 3 months. Please include ALL the required information as listed in the READ ME post at the top of each page and in Post #1 of this thread.

  • "Authenticators are not required to answer every request and it is their right to ignore a request that is not in the proper format."

Thank YOU.

I'm going to disagree just a bit with the seller and date it to the early 1980s. It might be a Cashin design but this particular example wasn't made while she was designing for Coach. The Metroploitan Museum Of Art in NYC does have an example described as a "gift of Bonnie Cashin" dated 1972. And it's definitely a Courier Pouch, not a Saddle Pouch as the seller also mentions in the description.

Also, please ignore the seller's advice that it could be redeemed with a little shoe polish. Keep shoe polish far away from your bag.

Thanks so much for your insight.... I did not know that.... I appreciate you sharing your expertise! I'm happy to know that it is authentic.

And look what I found in the Metropolitan Museum Of Art Collections...

Six pages of Cashin Fashions, including THIS:

It looks like that's the only handbag in the collection though, which is sad. :crybaby:

But the clothes are AMAZING.

Could you please check this bag out?

Item:Authentic COACH Rogue Graboutin Pebble 2WAY 20315 Handbag Blue Leather
Listing number:313499882773
Seller and site where listed: eBay
Link:


Comments:
It looks like a Rogue Generation 1/1.5 but the white tag says “sample”, there is one long strap, and there is no clear photo of the creed. I requested one but no response.

Thank you!
Seller gagany (Be sure to include seller ID with requests.)

I'm not comfortable with this listing.

Dear Authenticators,
Would you please take a look at this vintage Coach bag?
Item: Coach Penny Pocket
Seller: diggingupbones (Poshmark)
Link: https://posh.mk/mEBn06OcMfb
Comments: The seller just accepted my offer. I’m hoping to get authentication before making final payment. Thank you in advance!

It's a genuine Pocket Purse (there's no such thing as a Penny Pocket) but not one of the really early ones. While still vintage, it's a 1998 remake and very close to the original.
