There is a shot of the creed, but there are no numbers. TIA
It's authentic. There are no numbers because it was made before Coach used numbers.

You might want to do a search on the purse forum for posts about the seller. Some people have had a bad experience with them.

Could you please authenticate this Coach strap? I've sold it recently. My buyer wants more information about this item. Unfortunately, the strap has no any stamps on it. The strap came with an authentic Coach bag; however, I disposed the bag (it was ripped) and don't remember its style number.

If somebody could help me with authentication or advise, I would deeply appreciate your help. Probably, I shouldn't have listed this strap...

Sincerely yours,
Natalia

The coin purse looks fine to me, but not sure about the bag. Seller sent me a picture of creed but I don't know how to share it from my messages to here. The creed is J00 9931.



This bag's creed also ends in 9931 & seller's calling it a Watson Flap, but it doesn't have a flap -

There's no way to really "authenticate" a Coach strap since as you said, there aren't any markings on it. It's a shame you don't know what bag it came from. If you bought the bag with Paypal there might still be a record of the sale in your Paypal history, at least that might show the style name. But unless a Coach strap is really distinctive, it can't be authenticated once it's separated from the bag, since some online companies sell lookalike straps.

It could be from any one of dozens of styles make in the last 8 years or so. My own guess would be from one of the Poppy styles but that's just a wild guess.
