It's a genuine Legacy Zip made in 2000

Thank goodness! Many thanks, Hyacinth!

It looks fine to me, early 1990s. Interesting backstory for the bag too!

Yes, I thought so as well! Thanks so much for your time, effort and expertise!

Thanks for the extra photo and information. If the item you're asking about is no longer viewable online, or was bought from a brick & mortar shop or other physical location, mention that in your authentication requests.

Yours is a genuine Convertible Clutch, style 9635 and made in 1988 or 1989. Here's a catalog page from around 1987, click on the thumbnail to enlarge it, and then on whatever graphic on the next page is used to enlarge it a bit more. Most photos can be enlarged twice.

Your friend shouldn't sell that bag as it's illegal to sell counterfeit items.

You're correct. It's off because it's fake.

Thank you. I thought so and just wanted to make sure.

I was going to go after that one but saw your posts and didn’t bid. Gotta show the love! There will be other bags. Hope you got it! *edited to correct bad grammar*

Thanks! I appreciate that! I'm the same.. I won't bid if I know someone here is interested. Fortunately, I did win the Stewardess!

On the 5206 make sure the dividers are secure inside the bag. I have seen a few where the sides ripped out. (the photo with the added binder is confusing and she should not have added it). This is a nice, heavy duty briefcase.

I had a friend pick up this bag on FB marketplace and am hoping it is authentic. I'm a bit concerned about the underscore in the creed. The bag isn't in my possession, but I can have my friend take more photos if need be.

Thank you so much for all of your help! You are amazing!

The backstory is interesting, but the last line of the seller's description is nonsense!
"Pictures show the serial number in case you need to call. The number that verifies the serial number authenticity is
1 (904) 741-3090."

Good day Authenticators ❤❤
Can someone help me authenticate this Coach serena satchel? I bought this recently and the seller insisted that this is authentic. I looked up on google for the date code and none shows up. It says G2132-1591 for the bag and then I noticed that coach serena starts with C2132-1591 code thats when it showed up. Is this a fake coach? Its says made in philippines. Thank u in advance
