Hiya please would you have a look at these vintage slgs? I know they are hard to authenticate but I get all my purchases authenticated here so would appreciate your opinion(s) - tia x

The Mini Skinny looks good, although I can't even guess when it was made. The first 6902 which was also the first Mini Skinny was made in 1996 so maybe late 1990s? Just a guess.

The second one has to be newer than the seller claims, that "est 1941" addition to the Coach stamp didn't come into use until MAYBE some time after 2000 but my catalogs aren't much help here and I didn't really follow the Small Leather Goods (SLG) items and have never seen that one before. The Made In India stamp seems to agree. It's definitely NOT 1980s.

Again, this is just guesswork, if anyone has better information, please correct me.

Hello Authenticators! I’m interested in the two Coach purses at the listing below. I think one is a Prairie and the other Plaza. They seem genuine to my minimally trained eye.

Item: Vintage purses, Coach, ...
Listing number: 450653623344211
Seller and site where listed: Nancy Zilliox Hall/ Facebook Marketplace
Link: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/450653623344211/

THANK YOU! ❤


The Tan one 9954 is a genuine Prairie from 1994. The black one 9870 is a genuine Court Bag made in 2000. There's a small chance that it might have a "solid brass" stamp on the buckle but it's still genuine.

(I posted in your ISO post prior to seeing the request here.)

The second one is style 4664 and AFAIK is from around 2009-ish. It may have come out earlier but I bought the same style in 2009. While I purchased it at the outlet, I believe it was originally made for the FP stores. It's called water buffalo slim card case and the color of yours is British tan. It came in BT, mahogany and black.
