Comments: I do not see a listing #. Will someone please let me know if this is an authentic Coach and a the name.
It's authentic, made in 2010.

The item number is shown on the right side of the listing below the seller info. This is necessary because if listings have already ended or if it was removed for some reasons, a different listing may come up in its place. We want to be sure we're looking at the right item.

It's completely authentic, and there's nothing wrong with the mag snap or the zippers although I'm surprised there's no stamping on the snap. Still, 1996 was early days for Coach's first Chinese plant and maybe they were buying pieces locally.

(Please remember in future requests to include the link to, and URL of, the listing if it's a recent or potential purchase.)

Double Compartment Carry On made in 1996.

When they first started using some of those snaps, the patent information was on a separate sticker, which probably fell off the bag over time.
 
When and where did you buy it, and is there a link to an online listing?

It's definitely NOT vintage but it's genuine. It was made in 2008 and was probably one of a family of bags called Bonnie that were updates of Bonnie Cashin styles, but that's all I can tell you. There's one in a different color listed on Ebay as "double frame kisslock" which sounds like a valid Cashin description:

I'm so sorry, I purchased it at a store; not online. I do appreciate your help. After paying and walking away, I had second thoughts. I'm so happy it's authentic! Thank you again, I truly appreciate it.
