Hi there! I acquired this coach swingpack at a garage sale and it has no serial or creed I’ve heard some swing packs don’t come with either. Please help and thanks in advance!
It looks fine.
can you help identify it by chance?
No, I'm sorry I don't keep track of newer styles. Maybe someone else knows. It appears to be made around 2012, I think.
It's probably called a signature file crossbody bag but Coach made quite a few similar styles. I can't ID a style number.
 
Hi would you please authenticate this bag I purchased at the estate sale? It measures about 7.5" x 6.5" x 3" Thank you

It's very hard to get a photo of the creed in that style bag, the top opening is really small, maybe just about 5 inches. It's a genuine Derby Bag, style 9904 and made in the early 1990s
 
Good morning,

I hope this finds you well.
Having recently recovered from the dreaded Covid-19, I’m ready to dip my toes back into the addictive world of vintage Coach.

Please can you take a moment to authenticate my latest purchase.

Where purchased: EBay UK
Seller: Lucycupcake84

Comments: I believe this is a Basic Bag/Zippered Clutch from the early 1980’s. Style Ref 9455. I intend to rehab her.

Many thanks in advance. Stay safe.

Thank you Hyacinth, and thank you for the style number and correct name! Yes, sometimes it’s so hard to get a pic of the full creed of a vintage bag.

Authentic, and you're correct about the name, style number and date.
 
Item: vintage Coach Soho belted pouch
Seller and site where listed: I am the seller, it is currently listed on Mercari and Posh, but will take down immediately if fake.
Purchased: from Mercari
Measurements: 8.5”Hx7”Wx5.5”D
Comments: A reputable member of the community has questioned its authenticity and now I’m second guessing. Creed is faded -it has been dunked. I have reinforced the stitching on the belt loops by hand. The rivet on the back I believe indicates it is fake, could it have been added by a previous owner? ‍♀️

Sorry but the bag is fake. The rivet on the back isn't the only problem. The serial number vs. the creed text are wrong too. The plant code contradicts the creed text.
