Hi all, I would appreciate your help with ATing this black Coach Tabby 26.
Purchased it online via Zalando.nl, European largest online retailer. My concerns about the authenticity come from the fact that the inside material of my black bag is tan, whereas on the coach site (incl Zalando too) all black Coach Tabby 26 models come with a dark brown inside. The tan color everywhere I could check corresponds to this model in outer color Chalk. Is it possible that what I received is still authentic, or it is an imperative that each model has corresponding outer-inner color pairs? Thank you so much in advance!! Other than this the bag looks of a great quality.

Hi Authenticators, please let me know if you need me to add anything else to this post. My greatest authenticity concern is the inside color of the bag. Thank you in advance for your valuable help.

Giving this a BUMP in case the authenticators more familiar with newer styles missed it.
I believe the bag is okay. I can't explain the lining but I don't see any problems.

Other opinions are welcome. Perhaps there's someone who owns the same bag.

Do you have a link to the listing from the site you bought?

Vintage Coach Daypack Backpack 9960 US Mahogany/Brass 1997 EUC

Item # 165800191244

Seller: 360kelly



I would like to buy a vintage daypack for my wife. It seems that most of the new bags she looks at, look to be fairly crappy. I remember being a kid and looking at/holding my mom’s Coach bags and thinking about how wonderful the quality of the leather and how the overall fit and finish was. Mom still has, and regularly uses these bags I refer to. She keeps them in rotation. I have yet to see a new bag that I think is made as well that I can actually afford. Anyway, thanks for your time. I hope I have supplied all the data you require.
 
Comments: The more I learn about vintage Coach, the more I realize I don't know. I didn't know about a "mini chester" Canteen Bag, style #9982. I thought I was buying a Chester bag, style #9901 (there was no creed photo in the listing), and this tiny ADORABLE thing arrives. I'm in love. Now, please and thank you for letting me know it's authentic. H5C-9982. Measures about 6.75 inches across by 6 inches tall by 2.5 inches across the bottom.
Item: COACH BAG - small
Seller: Ebay, colcaw-0
Really hard to photograph the creed, but I shone a penlight in there...

Hi BeenBurned, thank you so much for looking into this. Here it the link from which I bought the bag: https://www.zalando.nl/coach-polished-pebble-small-flap-bag-handtas-black-coh51h05v-q11.html
As you can see, the lining on the site is also dark brown. If you were to check it for color Chalk, then it would be identical to what I have. I have checked many, many, review videos, comparisons on detailing, sewing etc, everything seems to be in place except for the color of the lining. Hopefully someone else can also pitch in their 2 cents on this.
