Sorry, just got back from the grocery store and have to put some things away. #3 on Posh and #4 on Etsy are the same bag. Back in about 10 minutes...


ETA -- OK,back.

I can only see the first 5 photos in the #3 listing, the one from Posh, and can't see the creed photo at all. Can you take a look at #4, the one from Etsy? I'm seeing the same creed and stamping.

So, am I going crazy or what?

Hello! Would it be possible to authenticate either of these bags? I am on hunt for a Coach Legacy 9966 bag. I would greatly appreciate any help you may provide!

Option 1 - Authentic Vintage Coach 9966 Legacy Zip in Black
Option 2 - Vintage Womens COACH LEGACY Black Leather Crossbody Bag Shoulder Purse 9966

Please read the READ ME at the top of each page of this thread.

Sellers' names must be included in posts.

Both Legacy Zips are genuine. I'm not sure why the seller of the second one says it was made in China.
 
Hello Authenticators, I almost forgot this one.

Item: Coach vintage blk leather purse
Listing Number: 150871534
Seller and site where listed: Goodwill Columbus

Comments: I would love to know the style and when it was made. Thank you again!

I believe it's a genuine Janice's Legacy probably from 1996.
 
Hello Authenticators, and another :smile:

Genuine Rambler's Legacy, from 2004. It won't be "vintage" until 2024. I'm not sure who the authenticator is.

No, you aren't going crazy yet! BB copied the creed from #4 rather than the one from #3. #3 is authentic.
