Genuine, made in 2003 so it won't be "vintage" until 2023. I've never been able to find a name for it, maybe "Legacy Hobo" or something similar since it's one of about 5 styles from the same period with mostly sequential style numbers and all the others are "Legacy ..." something-or-other.

ETA - there's a bag that looks just like it called a Legacy Hobo, style 9058 but it's smaller. This could be a Large version but that's just a guess. The smaller one doesn't have an Organizer Pocket on the inside.

The first one is fine.

The second (from thefiercest) is fake.

ETA: BTW, did someone send you here to ask about the second bag?

ETA #2: MORE FAKES from Poshmark seller thefiercest:
and
and


Totally illegible creed on this one:


Do not buy from THEFIERCEST!

OMG! Another "posh ambassador!"

Nope, not surprised at all!
Hi, I just started reading about vintage coach bags and am trying to learn how to authenticate. Fascinating but can be frustrating! I was wondering if you would tell me why you deemed these fakes, was it the X in the creed number and the faded creed writing or were there other things that indicated fakery?
 
Hi would you please authenticate this bag I purchased at the estate sale? Measures about 9.5" x 8" 2. Thank you
