Hello! This is my first post, so please let me know any questions.

This is a purse that my grandmother had in her things. After some research, it seems like it's vintage Coach, but I have no idea of anything beyond that. I'm curious if it's real, if you can maybe tell me any information on style or if it has any value or if it's better just trying to do some restoration and use.

Some details:
This purse has 4 pockets -- three under the flap, and one in the back.

Good evening dear authenticators! A request to authenticate please. Thank you!
Item: purse, I never saw this style before.
Where obtained: thrift store
Comments:dimensions are 8" height, 12" width (measured at top), 4" depth. Inside there is one zippered pocket on one inner wall and another slip on other inner wall.

Genuine Brighton Bag style 9895 made between 1991 and 1993. The older ones probably had only one inside pocket.

Genuine and made in the early 1990s. It was called a Pocket Purse and the style number was 9755. Here's a listing from a 1989 Summer catalog.

Item: City keyfob 7105 (Approx. Measurements: 3x1.5x2)
Where purchased or how obtained: Goodwill
Comments: Hello Authenticators. May I please have your opinion as to the authenticity of this cute little City Keyfob if you are able? The key ring is silver-toned (not sure if they came that way or it was swapped) and the hangtag reads, 'Coach' on one side and is raw fuzzy unfinished leather on the opposite side. Thank you!

It look s genuine. The key ring is probably a replacement.

It's hard to date those exactly but my guess would be mid-1990s. The style number was probably 7105.

Item:Black City Bag 9970 (Approx. Measurements: 11x8x3.5; strap length:50" longest setting)
Where purchased or how obtained: Goodwill
Comments: Hello Authenticators. Can you please give your opinion as to the authenticity of this bag? I compared it to my 1997 Turkey City Bag and the measurements craftmanship and hardware look spot-on with one exception. The brass piece that attaches the strap to the bag and the reinforced section of leather that attaches the brass piece to the side of the bag look slightly different. The brass piece is very slightly skinnier and where the reinforced leather is sewn to the bag looks slightly more pointy. Were there slight production changes between the pre and post 1994 bags? The last pic is a comparison of both City Bags (1997 City Bag on the right).Thank you for your time.

The most important details when authenticating are the creed and serial number. Small construction and hardware details often changed over time and depending on what hardware was available locally. The bag is genuine and made between 1988 and 1992.
