Hello fab Authenticators,
Please authenticate this leather Coach Sonoma Drawstring Shoulder Bag:
• Thrift find
• is it vintage?
• 8.5” length x 12” height x 4” Width
• I unthreaded twisted strap for washing, it was grossView attachment 5713140View attachment 5713141View attachment 5713142View attachment 5713143View attachment 5713144View attachment 5713145View attachment 5713146
Thanks for your expertise!!
It looks like a Sonoma drawstring natural grain shoulder bag (4923) to me but I can't read a thing on the creed (except "Coach").

Can you get a more legible picture?

Other opinions are welcome.

I still think it's good. I think I can see the style number and it looks to have a 1996 year code.

Again, please wait for confirmation. (Not saying it hasn't been done but I can't recall seeing a fake in this style.)
