Hello, can you please authenticate this item for me?
Item: Coach vintage tan leather clutch bag
Listing number: can't see one.
Seller and site where listed: jobeep71 on Vinted
Link: https://www.vinted.co.uk/women/bags/clutches/1817699789-coach-vintage-tan-leather-clutch-bag
Comments: doesn't have a creed patch from what I can see.


It's genuine, probably from the 1970s. I can't identify the style name without measurements and better photos of the sides showing how the strap is attached, and under the flap.
 
Thanks Hyacinth, it's only £20 so I've purchased, looks like the strap attaches through holes in the side but I can take better pictures when it arrives


Thank you, that would be a big help. It's a very early kind of strap attachment and it looks like it has the original strap. The bags with that kind of grommet attachment usually used a smaller dog-leash clip than other Coaches. The chain strap was probably added by a previous owner.
 
Found this cutie today at savers. I think it’s fine. What do you guys think ?
Purchased at savers.

Please read the READ ME post at the top of each page and include the requested information, including the URL of the listing and the seller's name. If the listing includes the same photos you posted, you wouldn't have had to re-post them.

We've had problems with Poshmark's policies and with a number of Poshmark sellers and two of us either will NOT authenticate items by Poshmark sellers at all, or won't authenticate unless all of the required information is included.

Thank you.
 
Item: Coach Madison (?)
Listing number: eBay item number 384820619053
Seller and site where listed: @an819663 on Ebay
Link: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/384820619053
Comments: Hey there, trying to confirm the authencity of this bag I found on Ebay! Is it as RARE as the lister suggests? Thanks so much!

The Madisons were expensive when new and pre-owned ones don't come on the market nearly as often as the much more common classic leather styles like Willises and the more familiar "soft" leather styles so they can probably be considered rare. Please note the description and the photos showing the problem areas.These Madison styles aren't nearly as easy to rehab as the standard Coach leathers.

This is a genuine Madison Copley made in 1995.
