My browser won't open Mercari JP pages. The only way I can authenticate is if you post the photos, which you've done.

Genuine Soho Bag from the Soho line, made in 1995
 
Regarding this bag which you previously looked at:
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224818100377



I tried the eye shadow thing. Maybe I'm doing it wrong? Nothing. Is is possible that they didn't put a serial number? The rest of the stamping is perfectly clear. Anyway, I noticed a couple more cool things about this bag. It's got a different zipper pull. And the buckles say "Solid Brass," not "Solid Brass USA." Sharing some pics. It is a beautiful dark blue.

It's good, from the period when Coach hadn't started using registration numbers yet. Late 1970s or early 1980s.
 
The 9816 Slim Duffle medium is genuine.

The Taft was WIDELY faked and I won't even try to authenticate that without a creed and serial photo.
Oops I didn't mean add the Taft pictures yet but here are the rest of the pictures, sorry about that my phone's been wonky

Oops I didn't mean to send the Taft yet but here's the Creed & inside sorry about that. On my break at graveyard shift so if not clear will retake pics in morning. I'm my car..

The Taft is fine too, made in 2001.
